Well that's certainly your opinion about physics, but to anyone who isn't blind or trolling that's clearly not the case in games that implement hardware accelerated physics or demos that enable physics features that clearly have not been done in real-time previously.Originally posted by: error8
But that's exactly it. It doesn't offers much, just like PhysX . Do you want me to link you to the jumping balls dx 10.1 demonstration movie ATI has, to show you the differences? You're right, PhysX has the upper hand on eye candy improvement, but dx 10.1 path is faster on cards and games that use it correctly.
But I do agree about DX10.1, its so unremarkable its simply not worth mentioning.
Who said I consider ATI cards inferior just because of this feature? There's about 8-9 other considerations that precede PhysX where Nvidia parts are superior, starting with performance. Not to mention I don't even consider an Nvidia feature anymore, seeing as hardware accelerated Havok was recently introduced and demonstrated compatibility with ATI as well as Nvidia parts.The thing is, that both of them bring some improvements, here and there, that do not count on the overall card's value. For me both PhysX and dx 10.1 are worthless at this time. But it annoys me when you consider ATi cards are inferior just because they don't have the Nvidia's feature.
