As promised by NVIDIA they have showed off the new GF100(Fermi) GPU at CES 2010 which is currently underway. The PC Watch website has some really nice pictures and information from the NVIDIA table at CES showing the System that NVIDIA is showing the Fermi GF100 card on and running the new DirectX 11 benchmark Unigine Heaven. TweakTown has also uploaded a really nice video to YouTube showing the System and more information from NVIDIA’s technical marketing director, Nick Stam, be sure to check it out below or the YouTube link here.
More interestingly and what we would be interested in is that PC games Hardware is reporting that NVIDIA is going to be showing off a new PhysX demo on the Fermi system called “Supersonic Sled”. Be sure to keep checking in with GamePhys for more information about this. Hopefully soon we will have some nice videos to post and hopefully NVIDIA will release this demo.
Nvidia confirmed to PC Games Hardware that there will be a special Physx demo, called Supersonic Sled, on display at the CES. The rocket that is shown, isn’t just animated physically correct, but also offers the appropriate smoke – the destructible obstacles are animated correctly, too. The demo supports DirectX 11 and 3D Vision.
