this video (or demo) is circa 2002. grid is circa 2008.
also, for the nvidia/ati fanboys below... well, actually anything i say will be lost to their stupidty. so i'll just leave them to their supposed "brand loyalty".
this video fails imo, your showing a demo optimised for runing with the ATI drivers on a nvidia card, do it the other way around and you will get the same result, unless nvidia has programed their demos better.
Even tho nvidia cards are far faster? Yeah that makes sence. Oh and before you mention the 4870X2, Its infact a double card and should be compared to two nvidia's 260GTX's in sli, Where ATI falls flat on its face ;) Oh and dont say im a fanboy. I was once a fan of AMD, Then C2D came out, So i became a fan of Intel, Now the promising Phenom II has come out, And im leaning back towards the AMD side of cpus. With GPU's, Nvidias are more reliable (Drivers that actualy work), Faster, image quality+.
ok first of all. that looked like it ran like shit. I would never work ATI on nvidia gear if it does that. 2nd whoever says ATI rules is a complete n00b and an idiot because ati were failing as a sole company and had to drag AMD in and bail them out. Ati's cards are under resourced oversized cheap pieces of shit for graphics cards. My Nvidia works great and never had any complaints in using it. NVIDIA RULES!!!!!!
More like AMD had to buy ATI to drag them out of a hole. ATI's cards have the best balance in terms of price/performance ratio and with the 3800 series, they are doing quite well. When the 4800 series arrives, things may change a lot. You obviously have never used an ati card in ure life and yet u're talking shit about it. guess wat that makes you? Nothing short of an ignorant fanboi. stop dwelling in the 90's and get up-to-date b4 u talk. kthxbyehaveaniceday.
The Geforce 9 series was at least an improvement over the last generation.
The FX series was a step back. the only way they could keep up was through extreme driver "optimizations" by Nvidia which sacrificed image quality for performance.
Actualy, The only diffrence between the 8 and 9 series GT cards, Are the fact that the 9 series can be used in tri-way sli, Whereas the 8 series cant.
I have a completely opposite experience. All of the ATi cards I've had have had broken drivers, one blew up and performed poorly with Sim City Societies.
wat make that car so fps sucking? i mean flatout 2 have even better shinier cars... and u dont see x1650 lags on it... even when u run it on HD 1080i quality, still looks like a ps3... even on the x1650, and yess i have one HAHA
Dude, seriously, its better than not working at all? And i did say "only downside was i avg about 10fps" hmm i do see downside in there which means bad not "fine"......
ya lagging like shit- basically showing everybody why its made for "ATI" hardware through the horrible performance shown here by nvidia. I'd say at the very most is no more than 10-12fps.
ya, but i doubt they will. i used to like ATI, but made a switch to Nvidia. nvidia is more focused on performance and extreme. if you look at ati's website..oops AMD's website, its all cluttered with random stuff. they are more concerned with the user and the interface. not very gamey to me
yeah, im running osx, i just baerly meat the requierments(this demo came out the same year i bought my computer, in fact, for $50 more, i could have gotten the 9800), but when i try to do the demo my computer frezez.:(
hehehe, man how do i love fanboys.... also if your guys keep cussing, i will keep deleting your post. And chad0987, how would i profe of this? I could make another video running on my 6800gt and it runs much better on it anyways :)
i have a fx 5200 ultra. were can i get that demo? and ati is better, i just needed to say it.and dont compair the 8800 gtx to the hd2900xt the 2900 xt costs $150 less, compair it to the 8800 gts. they have the same price but the 2900xt wins hands down.
Prob with this is, that A. it doesnt say what hardware, it could be a 5200 for all we know. And two, ATI Demo's are designed for ATI cards, because nVidia wouldnt have seen the source code so there drivers wouldn't be right or ready for the ATI Demo.
Nvidia hat angst das ihre Demos auf ATI Karten besser laufen als auf ihren eigenen. War ja schonmal der fall ob wohl die ATI die codes umwandeln musste war sie noch schneller als die Nvidia für die die demo ja OPTIMIERT wurde. Nvidia hat einfach nur angst das ist alles :D
Yes but it can run on nvidia hardware. But putting a nvidia demo on a ati card its even worst!

whats worse is that all the new demos have simulation code running on ATI GPUs so that they cannot run at all on an Nvidia GPU.
