I am going to buy dbpro, but want to know if it can handle fast polygon collision with lots of 3d models (.x).

Sorry this is a really boring post, and sorry again if it has already been asked

Yeah.
Mainly because you do lightning quick but inaccurate radius-based collision first. If two objects are with the collision distance you turn on the per-poly collicion detection and try and get the collision. You'll either get nothing (they're not really colliding) or you'll get the exact coordinates where they collide. At which point you turn off the per-poly detection and continue with your game loop.

What he said...
I did some coll tests on some high poly models, basically a room full of odd shapes. (And gravity as well)
Ran fine for me
