Gorgeous Graphics
Modern games and 3D applications demand more graphics performance than ever before and integrated graphics simply aren't good enough. SPARKLE GeForce 210/GT220/GT240 PCI Express x1 Graphics Cards packs CUDA processing cores into a compact power efficient design delivering up to 37x the performance of integrated solutions! If you want to play popular games like World of Warcraft, Spore, Sims3, Left 4 Dead or Fallout 3, SPARKLE GeForce 210/GT220/GT240 PCI Express x1 Graphics Cards are essential additions to your PC.
All-Solid-Capacitor Design
The capacitors are key factor of power supply on the system and it has great impact on system stability. At present, solid capacitors and electrolytic capacitors both store electricity and discharge it when needed. According to factual test, any operation under high frequency and temperature, solid capacitors are able to supply more stable current than electrolytic capacitors and strengthen longer lifespan. Solid capacitors contain zero risk of leaking or exploding. The SPARKLE GeForce 210/GT220/GT240 PCI Express x1 Graphics Cards use all solid capacitor as a true factor of products quality.
Full-Scale HD output interface
SPARKLE GeForce 210/GT220/GT240 PCI Express x1 Graphics Cards come with a full-scale HD output interface, which includes HDMI 1.3a, DVI and CRT interfaces.
HDMI 1.3a Support

Good idea anyways. Saves people breaking their PCI-e slots to get a PhysX card in their system when all they ahve left over is a PCI-e x1.
EDIT: Just looking through some more of the marketing crap, are they seriously marketing CUDA on these things as if no other NVIDIA card has it? Oh right, the GeForce 8400GS, 8500GT, 8600GT 8800GT, 8800GTX, 8800GTS, 8800 Ultra, 9400, 9500, 9600, 9800, GTX 260, 275, 280, 285, 295, 460, 465, 470, 480 and the various new onboard nForce chips don't have it do they.
Kind of a redundant marketing campaign.
PM me thx
Most people here are running 8800, 9800, 9600, GTS 240/250 for PhysX, the GTS 210 is way to weak and too cheap to be moderately advanced and support such features.
If you really want to use an x1 slot for something like folding, you can simply cut through one end of the x1 slot so that an x16 card will plug into it (or use an open-ended/modified riser if you're more comfortable with that).
