Oh wow, you've really got no clue.
The 8800GTX can push out over 345 Gflops, which is almost 3x IBM's Cell CPU. It has 128 streaming processors (which can be run independantly from other graphics fuctions), compared to the X1900's 48 (though these are just reprogrammed shader pipelines), and the Cell's 7.
The Geforce 8 architecture supports general purpose processing using nVidia's C-like CUDA programming language, which can automatically scale depending on how many processing elements are used (like in SLI and quad SLI machines).
At the moment, the Geforce 8 is FAR more powerful for calculating effects and physics data than any other card on the market.
