After working in GPGPU for a while, I have become really wary of vendor claims. Vendors do all sort of tricks to make their claims look good : comparing against single core non-optimized CPU code, comparing different algorithms on GPU and CPU, not reporting the time required to transfer data between CPU and GPU, comparing only 32-bit float performance when 64-bit floats should be used and so forth.
Of course, GPUs are certainly very good for some types of problems. But they are not magical solutions and are not suitable for most problems.
