So I came across this new piece of equipment while browsing around.
I've looked around some other forums and there is a mixed review.
Here's a few links:

Some are saying that it will only be needed for high end gaming machines to see a difference, and that since money drives the computing industry, this could be a flop.
On the other hand it does something like 1000x more physics calculations than your CPU or GPU combined creating a new age in "Cinematic Computing" for insanley realistic game play.
I, myself have not formed an opinion on this yet, so I wanted to see what you guys wanted to say.
