BFG AGEIA PhysX Physics Accelerator Card

Will this card work in my Dell Dimension 4600i?  I have an ATI Saphire 1650X 512mb AGP graphics card.

Don't waste your money. Physx cards are not all that they are supposed to be. and few games are setup to use them.

My question was, "will it work in my system".  Some of the games that I play support it, and the WOW wrath of the lych king expansion will support it.  I am hoping to use it as a stop gap untill I can build my new gaming system. My GPU gets horrible frame rates in WOW but plays COD4 flawlessly with the graphics turned all the way up.

jd359,

This isn't a hard question to figure out. I'm not sure what a 4600i is (assume you just meant Dimension 4600) but the PhysX is a PCI card. The 4600 has 3 PCI slots so as long as you've got a free one & are running an OS that has driver support for the card the answer is yes.
