Nvidia creates fire

[midori]

Are they bringing Fermi back?

I do have evidence that rendering that fire will use GPU power: Nvidia was using a GPU to render it.

 

Also, according to the Nvidia developer site, their Dragon demonstration ran at "over 30 fps" on a Titan. Since the central focus is on the fire effects, it's probably okay to say that the fire was the most demanding part of the demo.

 

Titans are well beyond the reach of most consumers, so is 780 Ti.

It would even run on a Ps4.( So a GTX760 and up would have no problem with it)

Deep Down does the exact same thing ingame:

Fire Starts at 1:30

I personally think it's wrong to compare this to TressFX as OP does. Unlike this TresFX can and is accualy used ingame. And like you said, IF you tried to put these kind of effects ingame it would render the game virtually unrunnable on any modern mainstream gaming machine (like mine).

It is more a step in the right direction. Is this demo a very powerful card trying to create super realistic fire, yes. But fire has always sucked in games and it would be nice to see. How is something like this different than TressFX. It is a fancy effect that is supposed to improve realism rendered on the gpu.

Personally I like the fire in BF4 when you ignite the chopper fuel for instance...

It does not look like fire at all...
You all get excited, but it still isn't near like a real flame.

Nice fire effects but will they implemented into upcoming games? or just the odd one/two

TBH, the demo didn't look as good as I thought it would be...

That's because it lacks art.

Not because of the tech.
