Perhaps you've forgotten what you originally said? The kyro is a graphics card. But still, hand-waving v real-world pragmatic performance figures matter more, and here your Kyro and P4 lose. It really doesn't matter if algo (a) is better than (b). To progress your argument you need to prove[1] that algo (a) is at least as good as, and as cheap, in software on the P4 than either some other algo or the same one in a graphics card. Whilst still allowing that processor to perform other functions.
