I knew the 620 was a weak card (thought it would be nice being single slot) but was surprised it wasn't a better PhysX card, same with the 8800 GTS. Both cards were limiting my 580.
The 460 & 640 added a higher max FPS but average and min stayed the same as the GTX 580 alone. So I figure the playablity would be the same without the 640.
The interesting part about that was before upgrading my CPU from a 2.5 GHz Core 2 I needed the 640 to maintain fps otherwise with the 580 alone fps would drop into the low 30s.
