NVIDIA Dawn Character

Grant Gochnauer sends along some pretty cool gaming news, Shack reports that NVIDIA confirmed they will be integrated the PhysX physics engine technology from the AGEIA purchase onto their graphics cards.

The one thing I’m curious about is… how? These things weren’t small to start off with, looking like smallish video cards as it was:

AGEIA PhysX Card

and they are suppose to take all that, and add it to an already enormous card that is the 8800 series? (I just got a 512mb 8800 GTS, and it’s big enough that the case you buy is a concern. It’s more or less the length of a normal motherboard and the width of two cards… can’t wait until it’s the width of 3 :(
