AMD TressFX Featured in Tomb Raider: Lara Croft Reborn

"TressFX" - I will get maybe good fps on my GTX 480 because I think that GTX 480 is faster or slower than HD 7970* at extreme/insane (hair tessellated) tessellation (eg: Tessmark 0.3.0).

* - attention to ATi-AMD Optimized Tesselation (enabled is (much) faster than disabled/original but enabled is lower polygons.)

 

Bro your GTX 480 isn't faster than the HD 7970 in anything I'm afraid other than Physx, as AMD doesn't support Nvidia Physx.

Plus this game is optimized on AMD cards, specifically the HD 7 series. So I'm sure there will be an advantage for AMD to some degree.

 

nope, i mostly care about tits and ass too.

But here we are speaking about graphics, and every improvement it's welcome.

 

Exactly, if the recent specs that got released are to be believed (and they haven't adjusted them) then the NVidia optimization is going to be terrible. They've listed the recommended cards as HD 5850s and a GTX 480s, with the GTX 480 being in a different league and it being placed along side an HD 5850 it doesn't bode well for NVidia.

(This stands even if you change the card to an HD 6850).

 

Don't say Rope

 

So funny to have a new effect like this and AMD/ATI only gives us screenshots, this is something that needs to be watched in motion.

:bang:

 

Wow AMD deserves a gold star for introducing new technology and not hoarding it for them selves or making people pay a licencing fee. Tops to that man!

I don't want an argument for this it's just a point that has to be made.

 

Well i like the fact that water, wind and other conditions affect the hair <3

 

Amazing Stuff....Look's so Real...

 

Well that escalated quickly.

 

Nvidia can definitely do this tech and nvidia was the first one to demo Realistic Hair back in 2010.

Nvidia Hair Tessalation, this looks more natural and realistic physics

Looks decent from the screens but not worth more than 3-5 fps tops.

 

Not true because see my post.

 

Another stupid gpu exclusive feature...

 

They look amazing ! Im glad to have amds now woohoo. Well, I expect Nvidia to launch something similar in a few days if not today haha.

 

Lmao^..............

 

Cool. I really love stuff like this. In games like RPGs where character customization is a popular feature, realistic hair would be welcome.

 

480GTX ~ 1.3tflops
7970 ~ 4tflops

My OC'ed 570GTX has ~ 1.8 - 2tflops, i think gotta re-run sisoft Sandra.

Imo its using very little tessellation for it, mostly direct compute power.


EDIT: at 950MHZ its 1.82tflops SP or 347Gflops DP (680GTX has 202Gflops DP)


@ Year
lmao

 

And dont forget DP... as it is DXcompute based..

Anyway more screen in high resolution from Eidos.

Anyway, on an Old demo released in 2011 by Square Visual Works, you see what look to be TressFX in movement ( this not appear on the E3 demo )
