Radeon vs GeForce Performance

With the Radeon 4850 and 4870 boards running PhysX via the CPU, as you’d expect based on the benchmarks you’ve seen on the previous pages it’s no surprise to see the GeForce cards well ahead of ATI’s latest offerings. Even the GeForce 9600 GT and GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB are well ahead of RV770.

However, if you scroll back to the other pages and look up the CPU PhysX numbers, you’ll see that both Radeon boards are faster than the GeForce 9800 GTX, and the RV770 boards put up numbers similar to the GeForce GTX 260 running PhysX on the CPU. Kinda makes you wonder how well the ATI cards would fare if they supported PhysX directly huh?
