Appears to be completely framerate locked down. No idea of what would be possible if it was unlocked

15 fps lol on my 1080

7-15 fps for me on a 1080 Ti FE with +130 on the core and +570 on the RAM.

I'm disappointed that these demos give you zero controls.

Edit: At 1440p.

For those where the game doesnt start fullscreen or with the right resolution: Disable Windows DPI Scaling
~30fps with 2070 on 1440p

Works with my GTX1070 and latest driver. Runs like crap, but, it's an interesting look into the demands of "realistic" looking graphics. Gpu+cpu power is only part of the problem, it's obvious that hard drive space requirements would also be huge for a fully-fledged game.

However, it also shows we're really not that many years away from this being potentially mainstream and the accepted standard. If I said 10yrs away, I still think I'm over-estimating.

I'm sorry, but I can't see one frame that would be impossible to mimic 100% with standard rasterizing tech--to look just like it and run at a 3x-4x better frame rate. Lol...10 fps at lowly 1080P--stutter city. People really get carried away with the Chrome look, eh? (You can do chrome effects and reflections that look just as nice with standard rasterizing. The "chrome look" isn't used that much in gaming today because it's such an old, hackneyed effect--done to death in previous years, previous games, movies, etc. Chrome & reflections does *not* = ray tracing. Sigh.) If this scene was actually *ray traced* you'd be lucky to get one frame generated every ten minutes. Instead of hybrid--well, there's no actual "ray tracing" going on, so I guess it's "hybrid rasterizing" (whatever that might be... ) designed to mimic a ray-traced output. But that's what rasterizing is, anyway! Ah, leave it to marketeers to foul the environment once again! I predict this will be a very short-lived D3d effect, but we'll see. You know, if nVidia had called this "programmed rasterization" or something along those lines I'd have had no objection whatever. But "real-time ray tracing"...? No such thing! Doesn't exist. "Hybrid rendering" is fine--just leave off any mention of "real-time ray tracing" and all is well. But that's not going to happen, eh?

But, I'll give nVidia props for finally getting out an actual *demo* of something that will run on those $800-$1300 cards! Even if it s only @ 1080P! It's about time, I should think--only about--what--six months late? Better late than never, right, nVidia? (I know that I sound like an old sour puss about this--but there's just something about *false advertising* that has always rubbed me the wrong way! Grrrrrr!)

No need to apologise, I think most tech-savvy people here realise you really haven't got a clue what you are talking about.

Solid 48fps on 2080TI/i9-9900k @ 1440p. Seems limited to 48fps.

"The "chrome look" isn't used that much in gaming today because it's such an old, hackneyed effect--done to death in previous years,..."

No, that's not why. The reason why is because they CAN'T do it and look good.

"You know, if nVidia had called this "programmed rasterization" or something along those lines I'd have had no objection whatever. But "real-time ray tracing"...? No such thing! Doesn't exist."

You obviously don't even know what ray tracing is. What nonsense.
