    AMD are showing a similar kind of angle to this apparently however CUDA has had slighly longer to mature and get its features into products.

    One would imagine the far greater power of the GTX 260 compared to the 8800GT would far outweigh any effect of unoptimised software. I mean, it costs more than twice as much and has nearly twice as many cores.
