Fluid volume simulation, DirectCompute

Volume simulator simulating an incompressible fluid solving the Navier - Stokes differential equations. The simulation runs in a 200x200x200 voxel box

you always can try ComputeMark to see if your GPU is fast enough

I tried it, it lagged a bit on my ATI HD 5550... Any suggestions of problem?

@MatheusMK3 This demo was made to run fluid on a HD 5870, as the calculations require a lot of memory bandwidth, lower end graphics cards indeed show lag.

Runs fine on Vista 64 bit, remember this is DX11 only, so needs a DX11 card, currently this is only ATI 5xxx. In a few weeks also Nvidia will have DX11 cards

Thanks :-) I've added another version that looks more like smoke, without the artifacts.

I get 8-12 fps on my 6990M. It doesn't look nearly as nice as the video.

My 6990M only shows a black box. The GPU works really hard and the whole computer slows down, but I only see a black box.

too bad it won't run in my GTX580 =(

sick

That is absolutely insane!

@jvlietinck ah sorry then :) thought only 1.2 version of fluid 3D was DX11. My card is ATI HD4870X2 so is a DX10. Is impossible to do this on with the DX10?

(will upgrade my ati with a DX11 nVidia... i hate my ati...)
