Head Directx 10 Nvidia Demo on 8800GTX

[TheCompyshop]

JUST SO YOU KNOW, THIS IS OPEN GL 2.5, NOT DIRECT X 10.

[awwkool]

why wont my 9600 gt run it more than 2 fps

[Exidium0196]

Thats amazingly different.

[Exidium0196]

Different

[Valentino319]

haha they should have made the head come to life...scare everyone! make it roar or something :P... I jk btw!

[picaticatara]

Oh my god who modeled that!?

[dardraa]

dx11 is coming out soon :D

[naylo540]

YEA i heard about that its basically dx 10 but for xp and some fixes

[dardraa]

lol no its not

[tehdaza]

Yes it is, it's coming out in October (Windows 7) but I'm not sure when the DX11 hardware is, probably around the same time.

[dardraa]

cant wait! :D

i really want to get windows 7 but its fucking BS cuz i just a little over a year ago i spent $350 on fucking vista ultimate and didnt even get C L O S E to my moneys worth with using it and gave me ALOT of fucking headaches trying to fix alot of the fucking crashes and compadability shit... well i've made me decsision *starts up Utorrent* :D well when it comes out im gonna pirate it, no fucking way am i gonna spend even more money for microsoft... greedy nazis

[tehdaza]

Lol, I've had no problems with my Vista over the last two years. I didn't buy it though, I just borrowed the disc from my friend.

[dardraa]

u can do that? borrow disks? what about the key? u can use it on more then 1 computer?

[tehdaza]

I had to use an activation crack, but the serial number worked fine.

[dardraa]

where can i get an activation crack? and do u still get all the updates etc

[tehdaza]

I found it on the Pirate Bay like a year ago. And yes, I still get updates.

[bogieman987]

you can use the rc version till next march for free and its much better trust me

[dardraa]

yeah i MAY, but when it comes out as a product im going to pirate it no doubt, btw if i get the RC version do i have the ability to transfer files over or do i have to does it nuke my HD and start fresh?

[bogieman987]

i dont know about vista but for xp there is a thing you can get off microsoft that would transfer your files and any way all xp files are put into a new folder named windows.old but things like games arent installed, i guess thats where the software that transfers files comes in and instals it again but my win xp was pirate so i had to reinstall all my games lol

[tehdaza]

XP's not getting DX11. Only Windows Vista and 7

[tehdaza]

Get YOUR facts right. DX11 will be on Vista and 7.

Google it.

[haha48]

ya vista and windows 7... got news for you..

[doctormoobbc]

get ur facts right! vista and 7!

[santiainen]

damn, i give up, xD

[DanielCriticalMX]

don't worry, even if vista gets dx11 it wont make it stop sucking :P

[CharlesThomasPeerson]

I'm not sure what this is for, but it looks really cool!

[KbApimp007]

test your video card, idk if mine can handle that

[extalia]

STFU it´s OC lol

[extalia]

how can i download this?

because i have a nvidia 9600GX2 with an intel q6600@ 3.78ghz with 3.2 ram running vista x86

[BlackPheonix81]

on the nvidia website

[FalleneXe]

lie...... q6600 it's 2.4 2Qual core

okok go play pacman with your intel... Lierr

[levi094]

its called overclocking.

[razor005]

and overclocking does what exactly?

[levi094]

Change the clock speed of a component such as RAM, CPU, or GPU.

[razor005]

Which in turn does what?

[levi094]

increases performance.

[razor005]

Sweet! How do i do it i could use a little extra performance

[levi094]

uh... Google.

[Mehrunes201]

If you overclock it too much hardware will overheat and melt or fry up.

[st3313rs]

however, it decreases stability and increases crashes...

[BCEMCOCATb]

It's OpenGL. Not DX10 or DX9!

Nvidia always create it's demos on OpenGL.

[dvdhny]

ITS DX10

[BCEMCOCATb]

Aha, that's why this demo runs on XP, dumbass!

[dvdhny]

no it doesnt dickweed look at the vid

[aSak]

yes, it does. i own windows xp and the human head demo runs smoothly and is all fine.

sys: xp home sp3, 8800 gt, 2 gig ram

[DT570]

A D3D 10 app can default to D3D9 on XP and disable the D3D 10 libraries, as far as I know this demo doesn't any D3D 10 libraries to begin with.

[alpha4rs]

Thank The Lord, and Thank You BCEMCOCATb, for bringing this simple fact to light. The Human Head demo is, in fact, an Open GL demo. However I do believe the Volumetric Fog (not frog) demo from the G80 launch was a Direct 3D app.

[drumstyx6464]

really all dx10 adds is support for different ways of rendering things, visually you can get pretty much the same from dx9....you wouldn't notice any less detail unless compared side by side. however, it DOES take longer to render with dx9, because obviously they've made improvements to efficiency

[xMADvDOGx]

whats about dx 11

[ESFilmer]

This... is... absolutely... sick...

[Fallingup899]

Windows Vista has dif types due to dif mem uses. Basic runs smooth with 1gig, Premium 2gig, and ultimate is 3gig smooth. Im running Ultimate 64bit with 4gig of ram and i still lag a bit. And im running the new Phenom procoessor. But my hdd is only 160gig. so that may be the issue. I only have 20gig left :P bad on my part..

[asim18]

Phenom is not good enough for vista mate. You should get an intel.

[roffleeeeezzz]

asim18 is obviously retarded

[asim18]

Chill out, i wasn't being serious!

[roffleeeeezzz]

oh, sorry.

[daveaitken92]

ultimate and premium have no different ram requirements, i have 2gb ddr2 800mhz and that runs vista silky smooth, the reason you could be facing lag is problems with software that you are running of it, espescially as a few programs don't seem to work aswell with 64bit.

[joblagz]

im telling you dx9 can also draw that head..

[Airborne102st]

...but then less impressive :D

[GronkAkowA]

wrong Oo

they could've make half life 2 look exactly the same with directX 8.1 and if you look at the orge demo of nvidia and other techdemos, you'll see that dx9 is far more powerfull than most people think it is

[Capeau]

indeed i think directx 9 was the best version ever

[forgottenbow]

You're right, directX9 was a great rendering system. But its not the best in my eyes. When they went from 2d to 3d was prolly the best, don't remember which one it was though...

[cncgeneral]

It could but it couldn't do the lighting effects and all the stuff you tend not to realise is happening because it looks so real. If you can show me dx9 doing exactly the same thing then I will be very suprised.

[bookshelffury]

win xp fanboy =P

[jeanfulx]

vamos!! cada vez mas serca de la realidad

[killer2403]

no it is not

[HMZinSPOOKY]

is 8800gtx only for dx10

[Josh1901]

nope

[Pro25Mak]

is 1680*1050 resolution HD ??

[eastyamg]

HD is a respective term and widely used it seems recently to sell sell sell. ppl who used to game at 320x240 will think 640x480 is mega hd. ;) 1080p which is I think quoted as true hd is 1920x1080, 1280×720 would be 720P. if you have a 30" PC then HD is 2560x1600 ;)

[Pro25Mak]

heh now i gotta buy 24 " monitor :(

[ZoonCorp]

Does direct X 10 require this good graphics card, and is Dx10 free?

[eastyamg]

Nope. now there are various DX10 GPU's just check out the Nvidia and ATI sites. Most recent cards will be dx10.

[SGTR32]

Ati is better but expensive, 1GB is rarely affordable

[DgtlOutcst]

because you really need 1GB of vram....

[HMZinSPOOKY]

wow 1 gb of vram dude i can hardly get 512mb

[WouldYouBeKeen]

Back in the day people said who needs 128mb... Now look. It's future proof, for the next few years anyway.

[SGTR32]

Ati is better but expensive, 1GB is rarely affordable

[MattyH101]

ati confuses me lol iv been a nvidia user 4 years and i have no idea about which ati models are good

[SGTR32]

ATI SAPHHIRE GTX 780 MB that supports SLI, itx superbbb!, graphics are aesome, even when recording, just chek out my videos they are made with ATi's

[underground235]

if its ATI its crossfire me thinks ;P

[HMZinSPOOKY]

can you tell me which one is better cause iv been using nvidia

[wywern209]

get a radeon 3870x2 its their best one

[hattrickjohannes]

ati x1650

[lukedaed]

i haVE 6100 NFORCE

[MysteryMysta]

sorry but i was joking

[wfzone]

new ZOTAC GeForce 9800GX2 is very best xD!!

[MysteryMysta]

i have a nvidia 8800 ultra

[Pro25Mak]

so what

[nitrotekk]

no you haven't..

[nitrotekk]

no you haven't..

[seishin48]

mine 5200..

[triFeral]

8800? I still have 6150!

[gloustapimp5668]

ya me to 6150 le

[Skipan2]

with my xfx geforce 880gts 640mb it works perfect without lag

[DemiroBiH]

how is this gonna work on my xFx GeForce 8600GT (non oc)

[airsofter18889]

poopy

[DemiroBiH]

what do you mean by that :S ?

[airsofter18889]

the nvidia face demo is ment for 8800ultra i have the 8800gtx it runs fine just a lil lag, so it will lag unless u have a kik ass processer

[Baldino92]

Imagine game technology of ten years ahead... it will be more beautiful than real life lol :D

[bdude1992]

lmao yea

[airsofter18889]

u can download it and see

[Happyfagg]

i have one to but i dont kno how to get there

[Jamesisinthehouse12]

I tried :P it just hangs loool

[crowman131]

sweet nice one m8 :D

[Intosia]

yep cool demo i can run it :)

[davidguevaraso]

I want a Nvidia 8800 GTX, but for less...

[21Panzer21]

do u need windows vista to run directx 10 ?

[cyberstev3]

yes

[skippy10101010]

NVIDIA is the only way to go, but the face indicates that the scalp should be older looking, that's the only draw back for me personally with this particular video. Other than that, GeForce 8800GTX FTW!

[atixcrossfire]

amd 6400+ 3.41ghz,2 gigs ati/ocz 6400 memory, ati hd 3870 x2 crossfire x,2 raptors in raid 0, 19" nec monitor, x-fi sound card,asus m2R32-mvp, and playin crysis in ultra real mode like the way its meant to be played and in vids!!

[DemiroBiH]

ati sucks, i had 4 ati cards, ALL OF THEM GOT GRAPHICAL BUGS AND FAN PROBLEMS SO THEY GOT OVERHEATED. DAMN THE ATI

[Krowsnest]

not completely true. I used to have an old ati Radeon x600 hypermemory and I ran games like half-Life 2 and Battlefield 2142 fine.

[ShinGino]

All the graphical power seems to be concentrated on this head. But can it run full environments and gameplay looking like that, without massive lag?

[TheOneAndOnlyMichel]

yes :)

[benjyboba]

Hi, i watched this video then i thought i would see if it would run at all on my xfx 8600xxx. I wish i could have afforded an 8800 but i was pleasently suprized that it ran the demo. Was slightly slow and laggy-i ran it in 1024x768 at 1 sample but it worked. Impressive demo cant wait for games this detailed

[RallistasVordoN]

they will never come... directX 10.1 coming in few months...

(not suporting dx10!)

[Spyah]

Nice quality video.... i enjoyed watching it. I am awaiting for my 8800 ultra to be dilivered this week.

Hey i was thinking ... if you are playing with this head in this demo... and he would suddenly open his eyes!! you would shit your pants! hehe

[swazidoughman]

the 8 series is the best out of the geforce series i have used (6-8) & they new 8800GT overclocks to 725/2120, & at only $ 2xx, :D

[FccB1]

i wonna smack his head and run....lol!

[sniper11235]

just like how i wanna take a cops gun from the holster and give it back and run. lol

[133serge13318]

hahaha :D

[Tzoni]

I want to see that model with eyes open!

[MoRZiLLo]

Impresionante!!!!!!!

[cdsand]

I remember when gaming was affordable.

[sniper11235]

it was never affordable. the nes and snes and sega genisis and ps1 and n64 etc. cost about 400$ at there time.

[MXhm91]

Looks great =) , but hey one other thing, when you install a new processesor is it just like installing a new video card? Like just drivers and so..

[eastyamg]

You woulnd't have to worry about drivers. generally new CPU may probably mean a new motherboard and then without gutting windows you'll need to reinstall. but if your mobo is new just check what CPU's it can handle and plop it in.

[SonicEther]

It's not quite as casual, so you can't just "switch it out for a new one" real quick. Especially if you're going from AMD to Intel, or vice-versa. Generally, installing a new CPU is starting all-over...

[halo3d]

Youtube search for howstuffworks building custom computer.. and watch the series :)

[XmegaPresident]

That "human head" demo works fine on my 8800GTS 640MB. My CPU is an AMD 6000+ 2GB RAM DDR2 PC6400. The GTX's run about 10`C warmer then a GTS

[eastyamg]

Not than mine mate it watercooled now. Full load at 45C's.

[snake786123]

when installing a new graphics card do you 1st have to uninstall the old graphics card drivers

[eastyamg]

No mate but its a good idea generally. Even sometimes when installing new drivers for an existing card its good to remove old drivers once in a while.

[Xenogenocide]

If you're changing from an ATI to a Nvidia (or vice versa) GFX card then yes, you do.

[BrainSeepsOut]

that's what i call realism.

[Mistloch]

......ultra very nice

[citizend13]

Now if they can render an entire room like this with about 30 people..

[DarkProject]

lol ur right, if the fools think they can even texturize 10 of em with this much depth detail, they have lost their minds, unless they can make it auto generated, their fudged.

[Thomasiscrazy]

WoooooW it looks so real it gets little scary now.

[Rocco540]

this is vista.....god

[mentaltubes]

the thing its reflecting at 7:35 is the actual HDR map, its basically a spherical shaped texture used as lighting

[saumedkrone]

I've got a question. Do Windows Vista Home Basic have DirectX 10 already in it? or will I have to buy it?^_^

[eastyamg]

Yep.. All vista variations include directx 10.

[Rocco540]

wow it looks fantastic sooo realistic

[eastyamg]

Like no games that claim they run DX10 also run dx9? err ok...

[cannon8800]

Yeah they do have some tricks to make things look more real by using bump mapping. :)

[maureenOWW]

Yes, bump mapping....which has been around since the very first 3D cards. They had bump mapping on the very first Tomb Raider game, which I think was in 1995/96. Christ, get a grip...

[1schwererziehbar1]

Full-screen 2D fake bump mapping, which could be easily implemented with a very simple and fast rendering loop, was a very common visual effect in the demos of the 1990s.

[Quittripts]

it never looked this good though...

[McKack]

Wow you're so good at quoting Wikipedia! T_T

[DarkProject]

ur right but this is real, it actually uses 3d rendering

[1schwererziehbar1]

i agree. my comment was aimed at maureenOWW, who claimed that the bump mapping we see in this demo would have been used early 3D cards already. but in reality these cards used only a fake bump mapping. so you can not compare them with the 8800.

btw 8800 GT comming soon \(^o^)/

[SonicEther]

Subserface scattering, fresnel reflections, this is great! I think the specular color is a little too blue, but it's still very nice. I love the spherical harmonic lighting. Self-shadowing, great stuff! This had to have been modeled with Z-brush, it's just so high-detail. I just can't wait until they're implimenting real area lights and bouncing light instead of an infinitely small point where the light comes from.

[KaronaG]

Wow, dx10 owns. Nice card man, I am thinking of getting a 88GTS 640MB. If you have the money for good things... then why the hell not. Wish I could go 88Ultra.

[Vortigon]

Nice, but demos don't really mean anything.

[haloandre]

Its OpenGL

[eastyamg]

No it's not.

[blejdfist]

Yes it is. It loads several GL-extensions. For example

GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_tw­o

GL_NV_fragment_program2

GL_NV_vertex_program3

Link to your source? Because I can't find it on nzone.

[haloandre]

Where does it say this is directX ??

[eastyamg]

See the nzone and go to the demo explanation it tells you it's dx 10 and the dx10 only features it uses.

[haloandre]

Its not dx10 iwe downloaded it from the same wesite showing in the begining of this video.

[eastyamg]

A qoute "Human Head DX10 technology Demo in order to simulate complex skin shader and HDR lighting, each frame computed 17 screens and the total texture used more than 40 billion pixels and each of them used long Pixel Shaders." browse around and have a read. It works on various cards i think but only completly with an nv80 chipset.

[haloandre]

I had already read that when i wrote but what does that have to do with dx10? Its opengl in the book gpu gems chapter 14. Opengl 2.1 i think with nvidia addons email nvidia and ask if its opengl if u dont belive me.

[alexXxUsaCa]

8800gtx - today is good but tomorrow it's crap

[eastyamg]

Today your alive tomorrow your worm feed. Sorry what's your point?

[alexXxUsaCa]

i said : ''8800gtx - today is good but tomorrow it's crap''

what do i mean by this is a 8800gtx looks great right now same as a cost on it but tomorrow nvidia can make 9900gtx n 8800gtx is gonna be fucked up maybe u want to ask why ? remember what happened to 7600-7800 ect card series it was cost alot 400-500$ i got 1 n after while like half year price falled down to 250$ n it been going down to the present day

[alexXxUsaCa]

now u can easy buy it for 150$ wtf? yeah right! this is what gonna happen to 8800gtx it became so popular cause of crysis n bioshock are pretty games n u can play these game at maximum settings but don't be so surprised when the next game will slow your system down because

[alexXxUsaCa]

ology of games are fastly growing up n 1 guy from e3 said that day by day we gonna make games better n better so what's the reason to buy a card right now ? the fraps? pay for frapsextra 400$ it's crazy n u'll understand it soon .

[eastyamg]

yeah its true but this is the same as everything mate. I bought the 88gtx in jan I think so i've had all these months playing at awesome res and speeds.

I could have sat there twiddling thumbs waiting, but I want to play. plus $600 really ain't a great deal of cash to me compared to how much fun I get out of it. I've got a car outside that cost

a lot more each week and it's just sat there looking good. spend it, have fun you cannot take it with you.

[alexXxUsaCa]

yep if u have enough money to buy things like that everytime and don't think about what i said above well... sorry then for bother ya ..i have nothing to say now .. thx for an answers n bye buddy.

[bully129]

well hell its his money, like you said, but still $600...for a video card...there are some good PCs that go for that much...

[fr1025]

couldn't they find a better head cus that shit its ugly!

[eastyamg]

its Doug Jones mate.. Fab 4, pans lab. ect

[fissure000]

@arty : Nah, Crysis looks incredible, but it doesn't look THAT good, hehe. So it should run real smooth, especially since crytek is optimizing it right now, and the dude in the vid has a bunch of programs open as well.

[hirpwnshima69]

looiks awsome... but can anoyone please tell me whats with the dx 10.1 gfx cards comin out soon?

[artymowycz]

lol. it looks like the T1000 from terminator at 7:18.

its kinda laggy btw. will it be that way in crysis? please say no :S.

[Mincle]

Wow, photo realistic.

[colinfirst002]

gosh, will people stop using cameras to film their monitors?

[eastyamg]

Why becuase you like fraps.. regardless that it hogs resources so you don't get a representation of how the thing runs on that spec of machine..

[dozinoCs]

That looked FUCKING real
