Hmm, wonder if the UT PhysX mod is worth messing with.

Well, I'll have to worry bout that later I guess.

Yep, I think it's one of the best 'bang per buck' cards at the moment, and I know I don't have to worry too much about heat or power consumption.

Main thing I bought it for anyway is the folding, which it should give me another ~6300 PPD... Whistle , it's a shame that ATI cards are still a hell of a lot slower in that app, otherwise I'd have been tempted by a HD 4870.

I was seriously tempted by the 4870, but the PhysX announcement in the next Total War made me reticent.
Anyway, the 9800GTX+ is just for trial.

Back on topic, the UT3 Tornado map eats CPU:
