PhysX can actually be used for water although I have no idea if the performance tradeoff is small enough to allow larger implementations.
(Tessellation could also be used with DirectX 11 I guess, CryTek even did a pretty convincing water simulation with Far Cry and then Crysis.)
"We are proposing small form-factor PCs to be a viable alternative to the next-gen consoles. Enthusiast players want the ultimate games system and that is the PC," Matt Wright, Nvidia consumer sales manager, told MCV.
"The PC platform is far superior to any console when it comes to gaming, plus you get all the extra functionality that a computer brings."
"Steam now has more users than Xbox Live," he finished. "There is a whole new generation who grew up playing on PC with titles like Minecraft or World of Tanks. There’s a huge community who love playing their games on PC."

That fit so perfectly with the music playing in the ascii water tech demo at the top of the page!

There are details on NVIDIA's plans on their website, where the graphics card maker announces they will discontinue new driver support for legacy Direct X 10-era products after April 1, 2016 (thanks Maximum PC via HARDOCP). Word is the upcoming 340 drivers will be the last series to specifically support older cards such as the 9800 GTX:
After Release 340, any subsequent Windows driver release starting with Release 343 will cease to support the products listed in this section.
The Release 340 drivers will continue to support these products until April 1, 2016, and the NVIDIA support team will continue to address driver issues for these products in driver branches up to and including Release 340. However, future driver enhancements and optimizations in driver releases after Release 340 will not support these products.
