Physical accelerator card "PhysX P1 GRAW Edition"

It is on sale June 1, 2006, the price is around 40,000 yen.

Speaking of essential elements for 3D games played on a personal computer, it was a high-speed CPU and a high-performance graphic board with plenty of video memory. It is this "physical accelerator card" that appeared as a newly added element to it.

By installing this card, high-speed physical calculation processing becomes possible, fragments which are crushed by the explosion move like the real world of the real mono, and water seems to flow like the water of the real mono . Because the computing power is taken towards the game processing with the CPU so far, I could not do such a fine and high-speed physical calculation processing, but if I use a physical accelerator card I can do it.

An easy-to-understand example is obvious if you look at the comparison movie on the site below.

There is no physical accelerator card on the left, and there is a physical accelerator card on the right.

Besides that, a movie that understands the effect is published here.

It seems that human body adjustment is too realistic ... ....
