  • it is fake . 40 fps visialition 20 fps)

  • @313hummer This is an unfair test because he's running on different operating systems. Sure, it's proving that linux is "viable" for gaming. But that's not necesarily what people are interested in. I for one, want to see opengl vs direct x on windows 7 exclusively, to see which runs better, and looks better... althought I think they both look pretty much the same(opengl a bit sharper... possibly a bad thing some times).

  • Wait, the Windows side says 40-50 frames a second yet it looks worse than 20 frames a second. I call BS.

  • Like 313hummer said, unfair test. I saw this same demo with the OpenGL version running slower, this is just the exact opposite, framerate wise. OpenGL still has the clarity benefit.

  • OpenGL shows lower quality in flying shots, but it shows considerable performance vs. directx in the close-ups. There is also no glitching, like in directx when going down the pier. I think opengl is better. I'd rather have performance in my games rather than fancy stuff.

  • DirectX Is Faster Than OpenGL, Face It Linux Users!

  • 1) What version of OpenGL?

    2) Show the frames per second.

    3) Machine Specs?

    4) You are an idiot. 1 Operating System running OpenGL vs a fucking API that's optimized to the shit for windows is just plain stupid.

    OpenGL runs on many platforms, d3d does not. Don't compare them, just fucking use one.

  • i agree fps is fast on linux but windows has havy detail and depth linux in preety blur

  • @313hummer

    I am an avid Linux user as well... I have two computers that are dedicated to the operating system while the other 5 are Windows machines ranging from XP professional 64 bit to Windows 7 64 bit machines... I have to say that I spend most of my time at my Ubuntu machines.. I love programming and Linux is superior... But yeah I hate these videos too.. This test is by far unfair...
