Ageia's PhysX chip eats only 10W
 

AGEIA CAME BACK to us with information regarding its second PhysX chip.

This chip is now called PhysX 100M, and as the name says - it is planned for implementation in different notebooks, starting with Dell's The Beast concept, now known as XPS M1730.

Back in April, we reported about Ageia making a die-shrink and preparing a laptop module. All of this was based on upcoming die-shrink, meaning original 130nm PPUs were going the way of do-do bird. Now, Ageia's board is available in PCIe form, at least if your name is Alienware, Dellienware or Acer. Of course, all the attention of the die-shrunk PPU should go into Dell's latest gaming machine, known under the codename "The Beast".
