Bit-Tech published a feature looking at what the future holds for Ageia's PhysX PPU

Maybe Unreal Tournament 3 will be that game which first crosses the line between simply providing extra eye candy and providing a fundamentally different game experience with a must-have status, but we won’t know it until the game is released and this is what really illustrates the problem Ageia faces; without a string of must-have games set up to use the PPU, few gamers will risk investing in a new piece of hardware, but with few gamers willing to invest in the hardware it still remains to be seen if enough of the big developers are willing to take the plunge and develop games which will require the PhysX hardware.

Hardwarecanucks posted a review of the Arctic Cooling Accelero S2 and Turbo Module

The Arctic Cooling Accelero S2 promises to deliver superior passive cooling performance and we have found that it does exactly that. The results speak for themselves with the S2 in passive mode cooling the 7600GT to levels lower than the stock fan can achieve. Add to that a price that is significantly below the majority of its competitors and this heatsink looks more and more appealing. Even the Turbo Module is priced perfectly and performs well enough that it justifies its additional cost. It is both quiet and it pushes the cooling performance of the S2 even further.
