Not with TF2.

I do see a difference in the games that are supported by the card that I play: Company of Heroes and and GRAW2.

I have also seen a small difference in Battlefield 2. I noticed that when I run someone over with a buggy or jeep that their body is a little more animated and has better ragdoll physics when it goes flying...

Overall I think that the PhysX card will add a few fps because it takes a small load off of the GPU.

Off topic, I just ran some video stress tests using CounterStrike:Source

Model, Texture, Shader, Shadow detail - High
Water detail - Reflect all
Color Correction - Enabled
Antialiasing - 16xQ CSAA
Antisotropic Filtering Mode - 16x
Full HDR 1680x1050 Resolution

Vertical synch - Off Result - 228.27 FPS with at times maxing out @ 299 FPS
Vertical synch - On Result - 59.23 FPS with that buggy pink/purple hue on most surfaces, bahh
vert synch sux, leave it off

I would say these are pretty good numbers, thanks to the 8800 Ultra. Crysis is breathtaking on Ultra High settings also. Okay, enough bragging ...
