Exclusive Interview with Epics Tim Sweeny on Unreal-Engine-3 and UT 3 PCGH: Can UT 3 be played with full detail on a single core machine? Tim Sweeney: You can play UT3 at any detail level on any machine; the dependent variable is the frame rate! If you have a fast GPU (and thus aren't GPU-bound), then you'll notice significant performance gains going from a single-core PC to a dual-core PC, and incremental improvements in going to quad-core, at a constant clock rate.

CryTek Far Cry Interview "FiringSquad: Which aspects of shader model 3.0 are you taking advantage of? Cevat Yerli: We’re using looping and branching mainly. We’re using the floating point FP16 FP 32 of course. But mainly we’re using the aspect of making sure that more lighting can be accomplished with flow control and branching so we can encode for example 4 lights in one pass, which is speeding up the rendering. Our utilization of 3.0 shader model is essentially tied to performance improvements. So for example we can render, previously with 2.0 we were rendering one light per pass and now we’re rendering up to four lights per pass. Second aspect is that we’re us…
