If what The Inquirer reports on is true and not a Photoshopped image, someone has managed to get cards from the two different companies to work together.  In this case, the nVIDIA card was handling the graphics while the Radeon was dealing with Physx.  More proof that Physx can run on ATI products is good to see, but getting cards from the two different manufacturers puts to shame the news about the X58 chipset supporting SLI and the Hydra Engine.

“A LITTLE OVER A MONTH AGO a post at NGOHQ.com left gamers on the edge of their seats. A modded driver was running Physx on an ATI HD 3850. at the time we wrote about it here. Last night we spotted a post on Hardspell showing some more Radeon Physx… this time with a twist.

The twist is this: the site claims these to be 9600GT and an HD 3850 running side by side, while the HD 3850 is providing Physx processing in FluidmMark Physx Series. There are 2 screen caps with CPU Physx and GPU Physx as well as GPU-Z. The scores get a solid boost from 759 marks to 2909 marks when ATI takes care of business.”
