Interfata grafica a Windows 7

Noul produs de la Microsoft va avea o interfata uimitoare. In stransa colaborare cu NVIDIA si AMD (ATI), cei din Redmond vor sa asigure o buna comunicare intre ActiveX11 si driverele placilor cu chipset GeForce si Radeon.

Unul dintre avantajele principale ale lui DirectX 11 este, de exemplu, posibilitatea sistemului de operare de a reda material video fara a solicita CPU-ul – direct prin placa grafica. Mai mult decat atat, un reprezentant AMD afirma ca DirectX 11 va permite un nivel de realism in jocuri imposibil pana acum. AMD are planuri sa lanseze primele placi compatibile cu DirectX 11 in octombrie 2009, odata cu lansarea lui Windows 7.

Va prezentam si cateva caracteristici in plus:

• Full support (including all DX11 hardware features) on Windows Vista as well as future versions of Windows

• Compatibility with DirectX 10 and 10.1 hardware, as well as support for new DirectX 11 hardware

• New compute shader technology that lays the groundwork for the GPU to be used for more than just 3D graphics, so that developers can take advantage of the graphics card as a parallel processor

• Multi-threaded resource handling that will allow games to better take advantage of multi-core machines

Future souns great, huh ? 🙂
