I'm really confused how they still manage to not get sued by ASUS. I wonder if they already come to some kind of an anonymous agreement? Because, seriously, naming your product like that is just like getting bare naked, painting yourself red, and then running before ASUS's main office's entrance while laughing hysterically and screaming "neh-neh-ne-ne-neh! Come on, sue me!".

But can it make me a sandwich?

 

[blingooron]

Crysis?

 

[vrumor]

And here fans of the green is your fabled GK110 GPU.

Its not a matter of can it run crysis. Its a matter of how many fps we could get if we ray-trace the entire damn game.

The answer is: a few minutes per frame. GPU-accelerated ray-tracing =/= real-time. But it would look better than you've ever seen it!

I'd really love to see Nvidia release a GK110-based card to silence its critics. What better than a card to show them that Nvidia isn't turning its back on GPGPU?

 

[Draven35]

Well, the thing is, most GPU computing tasks including GPU-accelerated rendering, are single-precision floating point- which the Kepler architecture is faster at.

And yes, all these videos were shot in 1080p HD so please crank the res and enjoy them full screen!

So.. where's my GTX 760 Ti?

Faster than what?

 

[Draven35]

faster than the previous-generation NVIDIA cards. According to the line card, 2x faster than previous generation Quadros.

My point exactly.

You do realize that Maximus is a Roman name that far predates ASUS right?

Unless you expect ASUS to sue the Roman Empire for the name Quintus Maximus...
