as long as it's got decent capacitors or whatever the cunt it needs to keep electrical noise low, yes, i'd like my high quality audio card and gfx card AND physics card to be an "all in 1 gaming solution!" for like 350$ US - i'd buy one of those every 2 years.

This type of processor can be used for ALL sorts of great stuff beyond Physics..
(ex. Encoding/Decoding)
I dont understand why people think this is a Graphical feature of some sort, and think this belongs on a video card?
The Array'd Multi-Core Co-Processor should be a seperate processor that should probably have a spot on the Motherboard, with a bus like to the CPU and the Memory...
But since MB's dont have this yet.. a PCI slot (or PCIe) is the best way to go.
Aegia should be trying to sell this chip/card as a Parallel processor that can do more than just physics....
