I still wish the PhysX PPU made it into this round of game consoles. Sigh!
I am currently running an Asus P5WD2-E Premium with an EVGA GeForce 7900GTX (512), an Intel 965 Presler, and an X-Fi Fatal1ty.
The PhysX cards are supposed to be out this month. Will add to my machine when they are avilable.
However, I do enjoy the consoles as well. :-)

PhysX is out BUT, having run through GRAW on it, I'd strongly suggest waiting since it actually degrades overall performance and only adds more detailed exlposions (does nothing to the actual gameplay.)

I wouldn't expect to see it on consoles until it becomes popular on PC's. Consoles cost MS and Sony a bundle to make as it is.

There's no need for a physics calculation unit on the PS3; developers can devote a Cell SPU to the task, problem solved.
