NVIDIA has announced support for Sony Computer Entertainment’s PlayStation4 with the popular NVIDIA PhysX and NVIDIA APEX software development kits (SDKs). Game designers use PhysX and APEX Technologies for collision detection and simulation of rigid bodies, clothing, fluids, particle systems and more across a wide range of platforms, including desktop PCs, game consoles, and mobile and handheld devices. NVIDIA PhysX technology is a physics solution for designing real-time, real-world effects into interactive entertainment titles. NVIDIA APEX technology lets artists create intricate physics-enabled environments. They can expand the quantity and visual quality of destructible objects; make smoke and other particle-based fluids integral to game play; and create life-like clothing that interacts with the character’s body to achieve more realism in their games. NVIDIA PhysX and APEX technologies are designed to run on a variety of CPU architectures and can be accelerated by any CUDA architecture-enabled NVIDIA GPU, GeForce 8-series or higher.

| More Info: http://www.futuremark.com/benchmarks/3dmark |
Futuremark has shared a new trailer of their upcoming 3DMark benchmark software. The new 3DMark will include a new test called Fire Strike, which will use techniques that are extremely demanding on today’s hardware but are likely to become commonplace in PC games in two to three years. Fire Strike is a DirectX 11 benchmark designed for high-performance gaming PCs. It features real-time graphics rendered with detail and complexity far beyond what you can find in other benchmarks and games today. Some of the techniques used include tessellation, dynamic particle illumination and shadowing, smoke simulation using grid-based fluid dynamics, volume ray casting with shadows, and a wide variety of post processing effects including depth of field, blooms, distortions and various lens effects. Initially, Fire Strike will be available only in the Windows editions of 3DMark. The 3DMark Fire Strike trailer shows a short segment taken from the Fire Strike demo using the Extreme preset and rendered natively at 2560x1440 resolution.
