Yes, GTX 900 is required - I confirmed that because I think CC 5.2 (CUDA) is required. But maybe GTX 750 series can run...
The problem is its missing hardware Voxelized Global Illumination rendering - VXGI. Meh, at least they could use SW for rest if they must showoff with HW..
Moon landings are so old school...if they want to be hip they need to do a comet landing...(gentle reminder lol)
Well, well, well... I was sure that Voxel features are solely a software-centric effort by Nvidia, aimed at building new Voxel libraries, tools, programming techniques and such but it turns out Maxwell does have few HW accelerated tricks in his Voxel arsenal c1:
Well Tom Peterson did an interview and said that VXGI was definitely compatible with AMD/Kepler based hardware but that they were primarily optimizing it for Maxwell and Maxwell hardware has features that make it quicker. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cr-GToUHino#t=3165 He talks about it here. I'm sure the demo is just locked to Maxwell because they don't want people with Kepler/AMD complaining about performance. Someone will prob unlock it soon.
Unreal 4 engine.. hands down the best game engine out. Not cool nvidea cornering the market on this game engine demo Not cool at all. They stop at nothing
GTX 850M, says it has no Maxwell card lol. So that basically confirms GTX 750(TI) can't run it too cause its the same chip
the demo doesn't run for me with gtx 970 , last drivers (340.65) and win 8.1 :/ (engine thread exception when I launch it) edit : ok it works only with gtx 980 :/
344.65 is already the latest but i don't undestand , on Nvidia Website , it says : minimum requirement gtx 970 :/ I tried on two computer with both gtx 970 , and the demo doesn't run edit : ok on my fist post , I said 340.65 , mistake of course I mean 344.65
Could not agree with you more. It is a moving slideshow and little else as there is no actual movement in it, just a static frozen scene which the camera pans around. I was very underwhelmed by it. What is with demos these days anyway? I remember yesteryear when both NVIDIA and ATI/AMD released jaw-dropping tech demos that usually came out with the new graphics card to showcase the hardware. Now we're lucky if we get those and when they do arrive they are rarely that impressive.
