GRAW<---, jus picked it up, what a saweet game. I bet the PPU makes gameplay soo much better. $300.00 is alot though.

According to toms hardware the minimum FPS was lower with the PPU then without. Apparently the game designers beef up the physics when the card is detected, but perhaps is does this too much for the cards capabilites and ends up lowering frame rates. Could it be that First gen PPUs are already obsolete?!

I think its because the PPU allows more particles, etc... So the GPU has to render more

Weren't the PPU's suppose to allow for more particles but render them as well? If im not mistaken, PPU stands for Physics Processing Unit.




I Like Watercooling. D-Tek Fuzion, MCP655, MCR220
