Its not a gimmick as long as the game developers take advantage of it. Same case with mantle. Note that
- You can use physx while having a amd card, but you will have to put the processing load on the cpu
- Mantle is a new API ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_programming_in... ) , not just a particle effects manager
