<< Legacy FP is here defined as not optimized for SSE2, and thus runnable on a few hundred million PCs, vs. maybe runnable on a few hundred thousand PCs by the end of the year for SSE2 optimized apps. >> Nvidia will almost certainly have SSE2 optimization in their drivers, and that will improve all old applications too. How much improvement? Well we don't know how good/bad it is now, so it's hard to say, but it might be enough to make it clock for clock better than a p3 even on a legacy game like quake 3.
