NVIDIA PhysX Promo

[peanuttherat]

i have CM2...i never thought it used physx :/

[Mrifa84]

hahaha!!

NVIDIA PRO and Better Than ATI!

thumps up if you like my comment



[Kobrakai2007]

@Mrifa84 how about a thumbs down because you're a penis?

[stefanheichen]

veerytime when i hear : NVIDIAAAHH , it feels gr8 ^^ !

[Zeanu]

nVidia and its marketing schemes. Brilliant.

[marcostadeu77]

Frescura

[ricioz96]

last game..???

[Stef3m]

@ricioz96 Crazy Machines 2

[SerChade]

that water looks thicker than cum

[Luis11717]

@SerChade LMAO.

[oliveranation]

does the consoles already have this on??

[Stef3m]

@oliveranation No

[oliveranation]

@Stef3m damn it

[fedrosspy]

@oliveranation PC only

[Humam105]

PhysX is the coolest name!

[Xanaficated]

Any ideas what's that game from 0.43 to 1.09 is???

[Stef3m]

@Xanaficated It's the wonderful Mirror's Edge

[venator5]

@Stef3m The wonderfull Song name (I like mirror's edge. You?)

[Stef3m]

@venator5 I like it too and the song used in this video is "Straight Down the Line To Focus On Learning" by Study Music

[venator5]

@Stef3m thanks

[seantal007]

PhysX runs on amd cards ;D

i got a hd6870 and just installed PhysX and it works :3

[Stef3m]

@seantal007 PhysX run on all CPUs, regardless of graphics card

[seantal007]

@Stef3m i knew it couild run in cpus but i didnt know it also can run on amd graphic cards because people alwazs saz nvidia is better cause of physx

[Stef3m]

@seantal007 It can't run on AMD GPU's since they doesn't support CUDA on which PhysX hardware acceleration is based, obviously it will run without problem on the CPU

[kipdokken]

how about watching porn with physex on?

[VooDooTroLL1]

stfu noob , i got 2 PC ... one with GTX 570 and second with HD 6970. i compare and second (HD 6970) win. Please go and spawn someone else noob. Physx is use in 3 stupid games =))) if u dont know noob. Havok phisic is use in more

[Stef3m]

@VooDooTroLL1 Accordingly to Game Developers Magazine surveys PhysX is by far the most used physics middlewere, 334 games and many other professional app including Autodesk, Lockheed Martin and Siemens product or tools uses PhysX.

Stop trolling or I will prevent you from post comment here, is already the second time that I delete the same offensive comment...

[VooDooTroLL1]

@Stef3m Stupid nvidia fanboy , i hope nvidia take all your monye on ther stupid marketing , u stupid blind man. u see only nvidia in your face , u are blind. AMD performance in gaming is equal with nvidia and far over in other stuff like multi tasking , imagine quality ....etc And price/performance AMD blow nvidia. This is the reality so .... delete my comments if u are stupid nvidia fanboy. And 334 games use CPU to do physx , only few use GPU , like mirrors edge , mafia 2 , batman ...

[Superfloor95]

@VooDooTroLL1

I like nvidia's logo more than AMD's logo, so I choose Nvidia.

[skunkredhair]

@Superfloor95 not sure if serious or just potato...

[Stef3m]

@VooDooTroLL1 1) Well, maybe I'm stupid but remains the fact that PhysX is used in 334 games, even if most of them doesn't take advantage of the GPU and that Havok is less used.

I never said NVIDIA is better than AMD but your argumentation to support AMD superiority are pretty poor, talking about image quality the AMD 5000 series chip has an hardware bug in the texture units that in some textures generate a noticeable transition (banding) between mip-map level like bilinear filter does(continue)

[Stef3m]

@VooDooTroLL1 2) this was supposed back whit the card's release and then was officially confirmed by AMD with te release of the new 6000 that was supposed to fix that but it only mitigate this behavior.

The AMD anisotropic filter generate a notable shimmering on high detailed textures, the default texture filtering quality is lower than the NVIDIA, make filter economization even on trilinear filtering and skip 18%(28% tot) of filtering work more than NVIDIA(10%) on 16x AF at default(continue)

[Stef3m]

@VooDooTroLL1 3) Not to mention FP16 render targets demotion that alter something that ,unlike texture filtering quality, developers explicitly coded and has complete control of.

One thing is to change something that developers have no control of, another is altering developer work by default degrading quality in order to gain performance.

[alperenaaa]

@VooDooTroLL1 Nvidia has Physx, but sinds the good graphics card are taking over by the Ati, ati has represented their Eyefinity and Nvidia's Physx, so they are thiefs like i say i,

[salchiflas]

@VooDooTroLL1 LOL sad kid rly sad ...

[VooDooTroLL1]

@salchiflas sad is that u buy marketing =))))))))))))))) and very stupid

[salchiflas]

@VooDooTroLL1 okey kid its fine.... LOL when u can buy hardware to compare then u gonna have word to say in a discution...

[pivan23]

physx is great for those who want to spend money and electricity :P

[Juppie902]

Soft physics and Particles...

[EJVB1997]

what is the game in the time, 1:11 ?

[Stef3m]

@EJVB1997 Crazy Machines 2

[PetrFialacz]

In 0:22 - 0:41 I just saw, that with physx off, you can kill monters faster. :D

[VooDooTroLL1]

This is not nvidia physx , is ageia physx buy be nvidia.

[salchiflas]

@VooDooTroLL1 u se the name ageia somewere ??? NO ??? then ??? NVIDIA physx ^^ smart kid...

[salchiflas]

@VooDooTroLL1 im a nvidia, ati and intel user i like all of them but ye i prefere nvidia cus always give me better results than the others so ye i like more nvidia o.O. And no im not a close fanboy.

But im pretty sure ur actually an idiot cuz u say shit with out have any idea of what are u talking about... bye.

[TheBigHase]

I have a GTX 460 GS and system always says "no PhysX" installed or supported - does that awesome card really not support it or am I doing sth. wrong?

[Stef3m]

@TheBigHase Your card support PhysX GPU acceleration, probably something goes wrong during PhysX System Software (PhysX SS) installation, try the latest driver 275.27 (remember to check the option to perform a clean installation) that include latest PhysX SS as well.

[TheBigHase]

@Stef3m I now found out that there is an extra folder within the driver folder and there is an installer for PhysX so I did that now and will see if that improves or changes anything. Btw. latest driver for me is 270.61 no newer version at Nvidia at this point. Oh maybe you have an idea when a game (ArmA 2) CTDs with message "Error: Device reset failed 88678" - is that an issue with RAM or more Graphicdevice?

[Stef3m]

@TheBigHase 275.21 are beta while 270.61 are final.

Concerning ArmA, as a workaround I would recommend lowering Texture memory settings a bit - this could prevent or reduce the issue.

Note: it is quite possible upgrading to a 64b Vista or Win7 would cure the problem completely. Handling 1 GB of VRAM with 32b address space can be quite stressing for the system, and VRAM handling is a lot more robust with the new driver model.

[TheBigHase]

@Stef3m That's affirmative! But I never use beta -drivers so I'll just wait a bit. Yeah I know that it would be good and time to upgrade to 7 and new Mainboard too , but I just can't afford it - I really don't understand Mr.Gates why 7 is so expensive he's not poor (like me for ex.) - and also :last night I could play without any probs - that is so weird that sometimes it runs like a charm and next time CTDs or stuttering freezes n'stuff. Maybe it will improve with future patches who knows...

[ooBounceDKoo]

PhysX belongs up in the ass.

[SpadeAce90]

wow, enabled dust, enabled particles here and there

just wow, the way nvidia meant it to be played

[Stef3m]

@SpadeAce90 :), which game?

[isokessu]

Why some games only use physX. PhysX is good but it's stupid to use it when it only works with nvidia.. At least in mafia 2 you can choose to use or not to use physX and it's not that bad without it.

[Stef3m]

@isokessu PhysX run on all CPUs, many games doesn't support GPU acceleration at all.

[tommy714pham]

@isokessu all games use physx that extra video card there is to bring less stress to the cpu on physx. you really need to do your homework.

[Skankyandy]

@tommy714pham not all games use physX actually. there is not actually many that do. 17 released games so far that use it.

all games use PHYSICS, there is a difference, physX is an nVidia implementation of computing physics.

think you need to do your homework before telling others to do theirs.

[tommy714pham]

@Skankyandy yeah my mistake not all games. they all have different engine for their own physics

[Stef3m]

@Skankyandy Near 321 games use PhysX of which 25 support GPU acceleration.

So, you both need to do your homework :)

[darkbat312]

what's the 1st and the 2nd game?

[Stef3m]

@darkbat312 The 1st is Sacred 2, the 2nd is Mirror's Edge and the 3rd is Crazy Machines 2.

[kamikazeOS]

wow ..lame ...I wouldn't buy a card just for physx

they have to do better then that

[triberofvengeance]

What game is that at 1:18? Please respond. :)

TBH, It looks like Crysis or something you made a custom level + your own water(particle effects) in SB2, didn't you?

[Stef3m]

@triberofvengeance It's Crazy Machines II +

[adammccormick95]

Mirror's Edge :D

[GRUNTS2009]

Would this work good on StarCraft 2? Would there be a good change in performance and/or quality?

[quangluu96]

@GRUNTS2009 no, only in games with physx you'll see better graphics.

[mikejw721]

*Points at video* LAAAG!!! *Throws CRT monitor*

[vWBIRDWv]

How do you think my 8800GT will work as a PHYSX card? i have a 460 GTX 1gb thats my dedicated card

[Stef3m]

@vWBIRDWv The 8800 GT is a powerfull PhysX card, it will deliver great performance combined with a GTX 460

[quangluu96]

@Stef3m less Cuda core for physx

[Legendhalfliferrr]

@Stef3m no it wont i had that setup actually untill i got 1 580 and now i have all in one perfect performance

[oOoDeadlyoOo]

@WarBenifit156 try GTS 450 its better then the 240 and its close to the price of GT240!

[catnipkiller]

i have a gtx260 750 core and a 8800 gs alph dog for phyz x works great

[Stef3m]

@WarBenifit156 yea, the GT 240 it's a great card for PhysX

[Roflbrowser]

@Bl4lock Long no more,

ALL HAIL AMD RADEON!

[danilovic97]

Totaly same, exept some little details that are not improtant

[TS0AF]

@danilovic97 maybe not important to you. but to computer gamers. It is.

[danilovic97]

@TS0AF Well yeah you are right

[Meowzika]

the water looks like goo.. :D

[captainclayman]

sick music :P

[Gamefler]

Welches Game ist 1:09 bis ende?

[Stef3m]

@Gamefler Crazy Machines II, Sie können die download der demo auf de.nzone.com

[Gamefler]

@Stef3m

das hab ich mir schon gedacht aber trotzdem DANKE

[Stef3m]

@Gamefler ;)

[Sebal007]

The examples of the first 2 games are just DUMB SHIT.

you could create those effects with particles, performing on every System, using less CPU.

Those effects are just to promote, and not a real capability

[Stef3m]

@Sebal007 And in fact this is a promo... :), but maybe you are a bit confuse.

The first 2 example uses a particle SIMULATION to handle leaves and debris, the almost totality of games instead uses a pre-animated particle system, this is a huge difference.

[Stef3m]

@Sebal007 The animation it's computationally cheap, but is rigid, seems more "artificial", require to be designed (step by step) by an artist and every time it's the same.

The simulation it's computationally intensive, but is dinamic, can interact with the "rest of the world, and every time it's different.

If you have to simulate 10, 100, 1000 particle the CPU is the right answer but if you have to handle 10,000, 50,000 or 100,000 (like in fluid sim) the GPU becomes more efficient than the CPU.

[Sebal007]

@Stef3m

Thats right, but for the first 2 games, they could have added particles that do not interact with environment, using random parameters, you can change the look every time.

So, there is no reason to turn it completely off o.O

[Stef3m]

@Sebal007 but no one turn it completely off, because the original game have no such thing.

The developers, with the help of NVIDIA, made later a patch that add this particle sim

So it's a question of "perspective", it's not the CPU that has less, it's the GPU that has a "bonus".

Take Mirror's Edge for example, all the platforms (PS3, x360, PC) has the same game but with a GPU you get some nice addition.

[Stef3m]

@Sebal007 Is not that developers create a game and then turn off some things for the CPU, is the inverse, the developers create a game and then add some things for the GPU.

Probably APEX will help devs to scale automatically the simulation (reducing the particle for example) to the CPU.

[Gamespieler]

I hate the water of PhysX

[iHardstyleZz]

at 1:12 this game is called Crazy Machines 2

[TearsOfWar1]

Can anyone tell me what games make use of PhysX??

[Stef3m]

@TearsOfWar1 Go to physxinfo(dot)com, it's a great source for PhysX related info and news

[pfernando27]

@TearsOfWar1 like 9 games and of those 9 games ive only played mirrors edge. and batman, i have an nvidia case and geforce card but truth be told im thinking about building an ati rig, they charge 100 more for their cards and ati are cheaper and faster. physx was the only reason i could justify paying more but its a waste. also their multi monitor setup is horrible i need two cards to run 3 monitors but ati lets you run up to 6 monitors.

[TearsOfWar1]

@pfernando27 IDK if you think I am an Nvidia fan or something but i'm not... I was just wondering if I should buy a cheap physx enabled card to run with my 5870... I am AMD ATI atm and has done me well :)

[pfernando27]

@TearsOfWar1 yeah if you know how to run the ati/geforce mod then yes,bc you cant run ati and geforce together, so.... i think you should get the 5870, my friend just built one, got a core i7 930, 6gigs of ddr3 ram, hades atx case, and the 5870. in any case enjoy whatever card you get.

[Asaron25]

Aaaaaahhhhhh!!, oh my god, thi is 11:33  fluid simulation on real time?!

[Stef3m]

@Asaron25 ?!?!?! 11:33 !?!?!

[Willd86]

sacred 2

[hippocrates72]

Does anyone know which are the games featured ?

I think:

1/ Sacred 2(?)

2/ Mirror's Edge

3/ Crazy Machines II(?)

[Stef3m]

You are right.

The 1st is Sacred 2, the 2nd is Mirror's Edge and the 3rd is Crazy Machines 2.

[hippocrates72]

Thanks a lot !

& Thanks for the grat video !

[tiagom135]

there are lots of games that suport phyx

[elneuromante]

@tiagom135 lie

[MrVecheater]

@hippocrates72 gta 4, batman, the games were shown in this vid, crisis and (im not sure) unreal turnament 3

[hippocrates72]

@Vecheater :

es scheint als sprechen wir nicht vom selben Video =D

[MrVecheater]

@hippocrates72 doch xD du hast weiter oben gefragt welche spiele gefeatured sind xD (kp wie man des auf deutsch sagt o.o)

[kkmenon]

i am underwhelmed

[Zogrim]

Nice) custom made ?

[Stef3m]

No : ), it,s a promotional video for EMEA made by NVIDIA
