PhysX on ATI Radeon
Astonishingly, someone thought of the idea of going through the CUDA SDK and PhysX SDK to make PhysX run on a graphics card from ATI, also good at running GPGPU applications. Eran Badit at NGOHQ.com, known for his tailored ATI drivers, is the man who came up with the idea. He managed to get PhysX acceleration with a Radeon HD 3870 by making the NVIDIA PhysX application run on the card from the competition.
The results didn't take long. With PhysX support enabled, he achieved a CPU score of 22,606 that resulted in a final 3DMark Vantage score of P4262. A similar system without the PhysX support should land at P3800. A significant difference.
Alas, Badit doesn't have access to a card from the Radeon HD 4800 family. We will keep an eye on the development over at NGOHQ, especially how AMD and NVIDIA will respond to this.
