NVIDIA physX
NVIDIA PhysX technology helps games play better and feel better by making interaction with environments and characters far more realistic than ever before. By making behavior more realistic, the graphics look and “feel” better. In the beginnings of 3D Gaming, characters and worlds were basically built from boxes with decals on them. As technology has advanced, the boxes have become more geometrically detailed polygons, and the decals have become more accurately shaded and lit textures. However, most people still perceive an “uncanny divide” between a game environment and reality that prevents a proper suspension of belief and immersion into the world of the game. Before PhysX, game designers had to “precompute” how an object would behave in reaction to an event. For example, they would draw a sequence of frames showing how a football player falls on the ground after a tackle. The disadvantage of this approach was that the gamer always saw the same “canned” animation. With PhysX, games can now accurately compute the physical behavior of bodies real time! This means that the football player will now bend and twist in all different ways depending on the specific conditions associated with the tackle – thus creating a unique visual experience every time. PhysX technology is widely adopted by over 150 games and is used by more than 10, 000 developers. With hardware-accelerated physics, the world’s leading game designers’ worlds come to life: walls can be realistically torn down, trees bend and break in the wind, and water and smoke flows and interacts with body and force, instead of just getting cut-off by neighboring objects.
PhysX is designed specifically for hardware acceleration by powerful processors with hundreds of processing cores. Because of this design choice, NVIDIA GeForce GPUs provide a dramatic increase in physics processing power, and take gaming to a new level delivering rich, immersive physical gaming environments with features such as:
Explosions that create dust and collateral debris
Characters with complex, jointed geometries, for more life-like motion and interaction
Spectacular new weapons with incredible effects
Cloth that drapes and tears naturally
Dense smoke & fog that billow around objects in motion

NVIDIA PureVideo HD
NVIDIA PureVideo Technology NVIDIA PureVideo technology brings movies to life. PureVideo uses advanced techniques found only on very high-end consumer players and TVs to make Blu-ray, HD DVD, standard-definition DVD movies, PC and mobile device content look crisp, clear, smooth and vibrant. Regardless of whether you’re watching on an LCD monitor or a plasma TV, with PureVideo the picture will always be precise, vivid and lifelike. PureVideo is included on the processing cores on NVIDIA GPUs and handheld devices for the decoding and playback of video. If your PC is equipped with one of these GPUs, you can take advantage of PureVideo and PureVideo HD. NVIDIA applications processors also leverage this technology to deliver top class video quality to mobile devices.
Available on select NVIDIA GeForce 7, 8, and 9 series and NVIDIA Quadro GPUs, PureVideo HD is a superset of the PureVideo functionality that is essential for the ultimate Blu-ray and HD DVD movie experience on a Desktop PC or notebook computer.
