Hardware, Embedded Systems The much-talked about PhysX processor by Ageia is now finally obtainable for consumers-- sort of. Dell has launched the XPS 600 Renegade: a limited edition computer with four GeForce 7900 cards connected via SLI, Intel Pentium D 965 Extreme Edition (overclocked to 4.26 Ghz), and 2GB of GDDR3 memory, and of course the PhysX processor. That's a $10000 [EUR 8280] gamer's wet dream. Alienware couldn't watch silently by the sideline of course, and it also equipped some of its digital solitare machines with the PhysX processor.

The hell if I'm going to spend $10000 on a PC just to play games... that's just crazy... people that spend that much money on a gaming system should be shot IMO...

Yes, I can definitely see a use for this for a rendering machine for professional use, but to spend that much dough on a stupid gaming system... that's just insane...

But then again, I'm not much of a gamer myself so what do I know...
