Physx processor: CPU vs GPU

gpunvidia-graphics-cardphysx

By default nVidia settings sets the GPU as the physics processor.
In cases where the CPU is powerful enough, is it better to set CPU as the physx processor?

In my case my i7 3770k is mostly unused (at least not all cores) during gaming, but my GTX 660 is not, as it tries its maximum to increase framerate.

In general, is it better to set CPU as physx processor when the CPU is powerful enough?

Are distinguished by different mathematics. For example a straight can be represented as the sum of multiple sine waves. But a few uncomfortable, and the costs are large. This was essentially different from the CPU GPU. It is better to use the right tool for its intended purpose and all. GPU geometric solves the problem. CPU solves the problem of integer and floating point. In the first approximation.
