point b) already shows that you have no idea about raytracing :P
there's a huge difference between rasterization and raytracing. especially a car and its curves and reflections are almost photorealistic in raytracing.
however, i agree that 3 cards to render that scene is too much. there's a long way to go for real-time raytracing.
Have you heard of Pixar, the movie "Cars", for example? Do you know how they make their movies? Or any other animation scene in a big buget movie for that matter.
@Aaronage1 As others have stated, you have no idea what ray tracing is.
If you did, you would understand the point of this video, and why that is so special. You are looking at a video of the screen as it works. If you were standing there looking at the screen yourself you would be able to see that this demo produces near photorealism.
As of now, you can go download this yourself, if your video card can handle it.
@MastaSquidge did you not read my original commen? I made clear my lack of understanding of the tech, so your comment is a little redundant. If you want to fill me in then please do...
I'll be honest, i have no idea what ray tracing is, but I've seen demos running on Larrabee and now GF100 on YouTube and:
A) It's too taxing for even these next gen archs, 3 GF100 cards here? WTH?
B) The heavy hardware requirements aren't justified by significant gains in realism, this demo doesn't look any better than games we have today.

Brute-force raytracing = FAIL
Advanced math algorithms and specialized hardware to go with it = WIN

Yeah, this is why you shouldn't talk about stuff you know nothing about.

@Nightcover
Why? What did i say in my comment that was anything other than speculation?
It is too hard on hardware, this demo shows it, Intel's demo shows it. You don't need to know the ins and outs of the tech to see that.

@Aaronage1 "I'll be honest, i have no idea what ray tracing is" you should have stopped writing here.

@ajfogg OR i could have bullshitted as if i actually know all about the tech like most others in the comments of this video?
Again, i was just speculating. Since you know all about ray tracing, please fill me in.

Maybe this tech gonna be used in games next year ;D Seems cool :D

So a they way rig just to do the ray trace. Hmmm maybe I will buy a cut down version of this.
