If I did the calculation correctly, the nVdia 285 is 34% faster than the ATI 4870. And looking at Barefeats the 4870 is about (it varies) 25% faster than the ATI 4850.
Mathematically, can we say the 285 is 59% (34+25) faster than the 4850??
I would not use that chart to guess percentages of what cards would be most powerful for Macs.
Mac video cards differ too much from PC cards.
For example, for PCs the 8800 GT will out perform the HD 3870. For Macs, it is the other around.
The chart may give you an idea how the video cards compare to each other but it certainly is not set in stone when it comes to Macs.
By the way, I calculate that the GTX 285 is approximately 58 percent faster than the HD 4850 when it comes to PCs playing ET:QW.
And that's about what you figured.
