Mechasm by Fairlight | PC demo | 2023 | RTX 4090

PC demo presented at Revision 2023 by Fairlight ranked 1st place

1440p upscaled to 4k for preserving higher bitrate.

Clearly one of the most demanding demo's to date.

Demoscene captured in real time on the following machine:
CPU - Intel Core i9 13900K 3.0 GHz 68MB
GPU - ASUS GeForce RTX 4090 24GB TUF Gaming OC
RAM - Corsair 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 6200MHz CL36 Dominator Platinum RGB

Some scenes are entirely raytraced (in "software" compute raytracing. RTX is not on).

I wish I could go back in time to 1993 and take this along to show and tell...

[badmanPL]

I haven't tested this on actual hardware, but visually, it looks quite impressive. Congratulations!

[RetroJack]

Just ran this on my Ryzen 9 5900X / 4070ti before viewing the video - impressive!, even at ~20fps!

1st place in PC demo at Revision demo party 2023.

i'm used to seeing regular demos with maktone's music

[JaapioNL]

Right Fairlight have had their own gpu raytracer for a long time now.

T'es dans le sujet... synaptiquement époustouflant...

[tenow]

well, it runs on RTX2070... in 640x480 with framerate drops to single digits in places

[mustangjhn]

Runs on a Ryzen 7 5800x and RTX 3060 ti at 1080, all be it single digit FPS and dropped frames at times 😆

[gbkEmilgbk]

a great scenario inspired by recent breakthroughs in AI - Heaven7 worthy successor

[pathduck]

Love this - anyone know where the AI tech bro quote in there is taken from?

[ninjacat]

So that's what those modern cards can actually do

[CScene]

Could I possibly please get a copy of the non-YouTube compressed video file? (WeShare or somewhere)

[elijosintetico]

it works in 3090. except at one point when it drops to 20 fps

[pomi]

are all the fluid dynamics simulated in real time or is that baked ?

[aubirdforce]

An Intel Arc A770 doesn't even show the things it should be showing. Holes everywhere at 1-2FPS.

[mgrinz.ireneuszukaszdzitko]

Strong "pulsar music" in this type softly demo fill more animation effect's.⌨🎞🙂😙

[pulp]

This could be nice to run this on cheapest hardware, the demo mindset

[plaintextures]

Do you need math coprocessors to run this ?

[jasperd.]

Why did this win? it runs like utter dogshit on my pc - Ryzen 5800X3D, 3080TI, 48GB RAM. I am disappointed tbh.
