As far as I know, Unreal Tournament doesn't take advantage of the
GeForce 
T&L unit, that means the CPU has to do it, and then of course you get
better results with a faster CPU. With dedicated T&L titles like Dagoth
Moor ZG,
the difference between processor speeds is smaller, but according to the
benchmarks I've seen, it's still a pretty big gap: a Celeron 400 gives
80%
the framerate of a Pentium III 550 in DMZG.

Take a look at

to see the complete table of results.
