Got these stats from over at Hothardware.com and they show how much of a performance boost NVIDIA cards would be getting after the release of their ForceWare 177.39 driver which will enable Physx processing on the GeForce 9800 GTX, 9800 GTX+, and GTX 260/280. An introduction for the other cards in the Geforce 8/7 series will be slowly introduced after that.
The really good news: PhysX for the GeForce 9800 GTX, 9800 GTX+, and GTX 260/280 cards will be enabled by the ForceWare 177.39 driver, timed to launch with the GTX+. And NVIDIA says it will gradually roll out PhysX support to the full GeForce 8/9 line. As the above graph shows, GPU accelerated PhysX could offer a significant performance increase, in games that support the technology. The UT3 PhysX map pack for example, which was used to gather the data above, shows a major boost with GPU accelerated PhysX enabled.
