GT300 should be taping out NOW or at least in production for Q4 anyway. Good stuff coming. http://www.bit-tech.net/bits/2008/09...hat-s-coming/2 A more efficient DX10, cGPU support (standardized "CUDA"/"Stream"), and add to that every DX11 GPU will be a fully compliant 10.1 card (WTF happened between NV? Non-important features my ass...). Cannot find anyone announcing a future DX11 game yet. Probably not till Q1 2010 after Win7 has a good running start.

Well, according to these guys, with GT300 and subsequent, purely
general-purpose GPUs, DX and OpenGL won't matter. The developers will essentially be doing software rendering directly on the GPU and skip the APIs altogether. http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2...-interview.ars -- "War is the continuation of politics by other means. It can therefore be said that politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed."

Yousuf Khan Lot of good DX11 will do us when I can still count the number of DX10 games on one hand. Same thing with multiple cpu core aware games, I can count those on two hands still and most use very small functions of the extra cores too, maybe 5 - 10% increase in frame rates at most. BFD.

Remember, this is a guy who designed a software renderer that many nearly matched the visual quality of early accelerators. So his perspective is a bit one sided and flavored by that achievement. Originally Tim said we'd see everything on the CPU with multi-core rendering around 2010 or so. Well we're here and GPU's are doing more exciting things now  . He also had some comments on raytracing as well, but honestly we're going to be using hybrids for a very long time yet.

I've got some friends, GTA IV and Saints Row 2, they'd like to say hello to your unused cores.

He also had some comments on raytracing aswell, but honestly we're going to be using hybrids for a very long time yet. He is right about the trend though. I remember writing about the foreseeable end of the discrete GPU on another forum a couple of years ago. The writing is on the wall.

The hardware that DX11 requires is not fully present in AMD's DX10.1 GPUs.

The hardest parts of DX11 were present in DX10.1. It would've been more appropriate to call it DX10.9, since it's that much closer to DX11 than DX10. In fact, DX10.1 was supposed to be what DX10 was originally going to be, except that Nvidia complained to Microsoft that it couldn't get it done, so MS neutered the DX10 specs. ATI was ready right from the start to implement the full 10.1 specs when 10 was first introduced. It was all just held up because Nvidia was not able to get it done. In fact, I don't think Nvidia even has a 10.1-spec card out. Yousuf Khan
