Check your load temps. If they're really high, Ivybridge will throttle the CPU and performance plummets. Reset your CPU to stock clocks and you might find that your Physics score is actually higher. That's what made me realize it (new to Ivybridge

i just want to do some research on the net and talk and ask to people what they have and in their opinion would be the best solution for me because i saw some benchmarks and they and a lot of them claim that the 680 outperforms a 7970 but the user experience says that the 7970 wins 9 out of 10 , i am running only one 24inch monitor so i do not need like 3 or 4GB card.
thnx for the explanation
i think its best to see when the 700 series comes out and look what performance per dollar/euro you get.

I wouldn't base a purchase on whether not a card has PhysX, "Advanced" or not. As said above, so few games actually take advantage of PhysX that's it's not worth it to have a dedicated card. And don't get me wrong, PhysX games are nice, like Arkham City for example, Last Light, etc.
