Ageia's PPU to be launched in March?

This is so silly that i had to respond. The PPU can do something that everyone and thier grandmother has been clamoring for, that is to create new gameplay. Unlike ATI or Nvidia, the ppu can actually alter game gameplay. There is a point where eye candy is good enough, I would have no problem...

Physics Processing Unit

NVIDIA system builders have to pay SLI tax

NVIDIA system builders have to pay SLI tax

Re-Formatting and Completely Wipe?

When I want to nuke everything i use my scsi card and perform a low level format. from what i understand this returns the drive to its original state, but should not be done too often as it can damage the drive.

Fastest 18 or 36 Gig SCSI drive out there, cash not an issue

depending on the drive you might not need a terminator. most retail 68pin drives have terminations pins built in, at least my quantum atlas do. however if you buy 80pin sca drives then you will need an active lvd terminator.
