You've hit it on the button here.
So what we're going to see is a drastic improvement in physics, not eye candy.
The eye candy is all there already, but what has been lacking is the accuracy of physical things, due to the computational complexity.
I haven't read any articles yet, but this has been a problem for decades, which is finally come from the old 'Cray supercomputer' down to a little chip in a box.
Luv this stuff
