PhysX games with no hardware acceleration will not get a performance boost. UT3 does support but it requires the PhysX mod to be activated, and the it only works on the PhysX maps.

Here made by HardOCP users, and only the games with a "+" besides them could se a performance boost:

See GPU PhysX as something just as well or badly supported, as the old stand alone PhysX was. In the future however, I suspect it will be pushed hard by NVIDIA.

take a crappy netburst celeron and bench it with a gtx 280, and i bet you get a really nice score... so it must be a really awesome gaming system right?

im really dissapointed of both nvidia and futuremark...
this is outrageous... they build a benchmark series as a gaming perf indicator so people decide what system and hardware to buy depending on the perf in that benchmark, and then they sell out and fool their customers...
3DMark01, 05, 06 have little to do with reality as well. This is an old topic, and I would thought that everyone by now knew the obvious by now

However, if NVIDIA pushes hard for hardware PhysX support in many future games, Vantage may become the best 3DMark in comparison to games for a long time.

You also just ignore the CPU scores, and just look at the GPU ones, right?
