it still remains to be seen if this will become the new standard,

i think the biggest thing working against that is the dual, quad, and soon to come 8x processor cores

games will start simply dedicating one processor for physics, one for AI etc..... ( cant remember where i read a great article talking about this)

couple this with the fact there is a very limited support for the card... and because of this the games can only be designed with the card offering a bonus in the visual and not interactive area (so that the game is still playable without it), I would save my money for something else
