There is a simple explaination for this and it has very little to do with the hardware. I'll draw your attention to the DX10 tests in my XFX 8800GTS 512MB Review. You will notice that in many instances there is very little difference in minumum frame rates between the top three or four cards even though the average FPS differs quite a bit. This happens again and again and probably has to do more with particular parts of a benckmark / game being poorly coded or just needing an insane amount of horsepower to run properly.
