    Hey...

    I was wanting to know if this PC can have a Ageia Physx Card I was thinking of adding one the next time I add stuff to it its more of a general Purpose Pentium 3 but games that use Physx could run because it eases the Preasure on the CPu some gamesa that I woudl run with it in the Future.
    -Rail Simulator (release Q2 2007) Developed By Kuju Uses Physx to ease the Pressure on the CPU.

    The PC curently is cheapo but some upgrading will give me a Resonable PC
    Currently,
    145W Micro ATX PSU
    DVD Burner
    Built in INtel 82815 GPU
    20gb Ultra ATA/100 HDD
    933mhz CPU
    Intel D815EFV Mainboard
    2x256mb Pc133SDRAM 50ns= 512MB @ 133mhz.
    Yeah thats about it right now.
    After Upgrade it should have
    400W Micro ATX PSU
    Radeon AGP 9600PRO 256mb
    20gb+160gb Ultra ATA/100
    933mhz Intel Pentium 3 with High speed 256kb Die-On Chache.
    512mb Pc133 Ram
    Those are for sure but I want to add a Physx aswell but can I
    the mainboard has.
    3x PCI 2.2 Expansion slots
    Are the slots the right ones and will the specs after the upgrade do it?
