No not the car, C for GPGPU. (My CUDA article)

looks promising especially with the Physx Engine being ported to use the graphics card for all the physics. And the demo looks amazing! (The one where they PAWN an Nehalem 3.2GHZ by 20 times!)
Looks like Nvidia is really pushing for the "CPU is dead", I see that in the future you buy something in the line of an amd 3800 X2 and the rest of the cash you would have spent on the cpu you spend on the graphics card for example rather than a q6600 with a 8800GT you buy a 2GHZ core 2 duo with two 8800gt's in sli with one being solely for physics, AI, extremely good audio (actual adio waves being calculated-in the future) etc.

Did somebody just hit my head with a rock? Or maybe I should ask someone to translate...

Yip thats pretty cool stuff, did you write or just translate the article?
 
translate and wrote, I wrote some of it from personal knowledge of CUDA and gpgpu and the rest I got from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUDA.

Yeah I know, mines (the afrikaans one) is better :P
 
Where can I download a demo, or make it work relatively easily?

Something that says this is without cuda, it takes 4 hours to render/calc, and this is with cuda it takes 5 mins and looks pretty...
 
It seems interesting. I now understand what's going on there. Was sleep deprived and even 1+1 seemed too challenging for me.
