obviously that's why the power7 would be a good paring lol. But nvidia are relay trying to push CUDA and the G300 series as the first step to control all Processing in computers. they have made a lot of changes to the GPU design with multiple-instruction, multiple-data architecture and the edition of multi level cache etc. and other instruction set changes to allow better C++ support it is yet to be seen how this will play out in regard to rendering performance. still with phys-X all physics could be handled on the GPU and maybe AI leaving the CPU to handle the stuff that it does best
edit: an interesting article on the G300 http://www.pcgameshardware.com/aid,696377/G300-Fermi-Nvidia-focuses-on-GPU-Computing-Impressive-Raytracing-demo-shots/News/ real time ray tracing may be possible on nextgen consoles not that ray tracing is perfect but still.
