Lack of geometry ;
Solution -> Tessellation.
Lack of texture memory ;
Solution -> Partially Resident Textures of DirectX 11.1
Lack of good animations and physical interactions ;
Solution -> Kepler
Now its time for games to look really good.
Oh boy oh Metro Last Light .... can't waittttt..... take a look at the SLOWED down trailer if you haven't already.

Superb article plz approve.
SemiAccurat: "All of the benchmark numbers shown by Nvidia, and later to SemiAccurate, were overwhelmingly positive. How overwhelmingly positive? Far faster than an AMD HD7970/Tahiti for a chip with far less die area and power use, and it blew an overclocked 580GTX out of the water by unbelievable margins. That is why we wrote this article."
WooooOOOOOOooooOOoooooOOOoOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOW
Putting dedicated Physx hardware inside the chip may produce nice results if they are used and I bet Metro Last Light will use it as Oles, chief engineer of 4A has said the upcoming GeForce GPU will be fully supported :

PC Games Hardware: You ...
Yeah You are poop ... poopy poop
Judging from the screenshots, the graphics engine has really been improved :-). For the love of PC gaming buy this game gamers !!!
No they wont at 1080 p at 60fps if the rumors of Xbox 720 are true but if you consider 720 p and 30 fps, they just might.
The rumors say xbox720 is 6 times faster than XBOx360.
Current gen models use around 30k polygons after normal mapping.
According to the rumors they could have.
30 X 6 X 4 ( I multiplied by 2 to consider tessellation) 720 thousand = 0.72 million polygons.
The models in the images are all ...
Wiki nd a lot others say Doom3 sold 3.5 million copies
http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...
Vgchartz says it sold 1.34 m copies on consoles.

There was no Doom3 for the PS2. You do the math
The point I am trying to make is that if ID had stuck with their ...
I kind of have a feeling that Metro LL will be the first AAA game to use ray tracing.
When PC games hardware asked about the use of compute shaders, Oles replied : "We utilized compute shaders in one more place."

Doom3 took 5 years to develop.
Rage took 7 years to develop.
Doom 3 sold 2.2 million copies on PCs and 1.3 million on consoles; in total 3.5 million copies
Rage sold 2.3 million copies with all platforms combined.
On per copy basis PC is more profitable.
Hopefully Id learns the lesson, that even though multiplatform development in certain cases is more profitable than PC first development (MW3, GTA), it does not appl...
I have been following GPU business for a while, all the companies have previously said that their cards will beat those of others but they never said the opponents cards ended up slower than their expectations ..... in the last 10 years.
It is news given there r some stupid developers like Ubisoft and Rockstar who never can make a decent port.
@Extreme_Coolcat thanks for submitting it bro !!!
CGI - Computer Generated Imagery. Yeah but what it implies is that offline rendered video , in games the images are rendered ie calculated when u play it and the computer get around 1/frames per sec time to render each frame so quality is sacrificed and many techniques are not used.
In offline rendering , what is to be rendered is decided first and then the computers , generally a cluster or supercomputer or even a single computer starts rendering the images without time res...
The end will be marked when real time rendering gets on par with the cut scenes we see today. Realtime rendering is just catching up with Toy Story 1. So its a long way off.

Loool 6 times !!! ..... to play the same games of XBOX 360 at 1080p at 60 fps one needs (1920*1080*60)/(1024*768*30)= 5.3 times power !!!
So much for the next gen consoles ending PC gaming for ever loooolz :D :D :D
Oh my bubbles my bubbles :P
This this this is how a PC game is suppose to be made !!!
This is gonna give the next gen cards to flex their muscles.
Simply because he has learned the lesson that no one can succeed by neglecting his roots :D ie PCs in the case of John Carmack !!!
The thing is that 104 is suppose to be a midrange card but its as things indicate it is going to perform nearly as fast as the Radeon 7970. Moreover the power consumption of this chip is also lower .... so if ATI/AMD lowers the price of 7970 to match those of this GK104 chip .... NVIDIA will be the king of the jungle with its G112 chip ...... just like when it released the GeForce 256 back in 1999.
Do i need to mention I am a proud nVIDIA fanboy who likes to spell it in the ...
If this be true ATI is dead this round.
Today I got a new definition of "Holding back"
Even though I have submitted this news, I have doubts about this rumor because I trust SemiAccurate more and they have said the shader count of the GK104 isn't much less than the 7970, which is contradicted in this article. Moreover I think the top of the line kepler will sport 4GB RAM.
