Any time you're ready dear 
. I don't have a DX11 card(s) but I do have the OS, well it's a start.

You're welcome mate, and they are rather pretty aren't they.

You could probably merge both threads, this one and invisik's.

That would change the author and I know some people can be 'sensitive' about thread ownership.

I still haven't worked out who's thread ends up tacked onto the end. I think it's the one with the oldest last post, but i haven't tested it enough to see. You could always change the OP if you don't care about "owning" the thread yourself

I beat you to it mate.

No worries. Well, what did get, c'mon post up results, don't be shy.

More fps's than I got but then that's to be expected really.

I was hoping turning on DX11 would give me a constant 100fps at least. 
Interesting to finally see what kind of difference dx11 makes compared to dx10 fps wise.

I wonder how many people there are who are also expecting similar boosts or at least some sort of increase and more to the point I wonder how long before the bitter taste of disappointment becomes to much to bear, only time will tell I guess and besides it's only a benchie, gaming is where it matters and in that arena DX11 has yet to be put through it's paces.

Changing the author isn't a problem but it plays sweet havoc with the time codes on the posts.

Wait they use the Havoc engine for this? 
Yeah merges are a pain especially when they get long enough individually.
Will download and test demo over weak-end.
Not a fan of the Tropics benchmark because of the weak dX10 implementation.
DX10
DX11
DX9
OpenGL
Not a great deal of difference on my system, DX9 is still the FPS king and OpenGL lags behind a bit. They all look about the same too.

You guys miss the point.
Dx11 benchmark runs little fast than DX10 if you dont turn on Tesselation. And I have to say I am VERY IMPRESSED with Tesselation.
From what I see on the market (as I dont own dx11 card yet ) it seems turning tesselation ON reduces the fps about 30%. While this is a BIG drop in the fps, take notice that the graphics and level of realism cant even be compared. And these guys went little over the fence with it . They are not applying some small tesselation here and there, they go balistics - adding milions of new polygons.
I am ASTONISHED that the drop is ONLY 30% for what you get. Not to mention that probably the drop is not from the tesselator itself but most probably after processing , like shadows, lights, textures etc - as when you have more faces its slower to texture them / cast shadows on them etc.
WOW, really WOW. Notice how Tesselators are designed to allow structural changes to the objects also, adding spikes on the dragon, the roofs of the buildings, the stones on the walls and on the roads. Its a whole new game (if its in a game). BIGGEST JUMP in graphics for last 10 years I say, sinse Hardware T&L.
Other great thing is that you can apply it like Mip Mapping - tesselating more in the near objects and not tesselating the far ones. This is optimized thinking and it looks amazing. Last but not least - I expect this Tesselation option in game to be highly configurable. i.e. you can have Low/Medium/High settings with such an ease - devs have just to set how many steps they use on the tesselator for each settings. Thats the beauty of it.
And personally I would probably want to play a game with Tesselation on Low more than with 4xAA - There will be a real battle here on the graphics market probably between functionality.
Another really interesting thing for me would be to see how well Fermi copes with this Tesselation. As it doesnt have dedicated Tesselator it would have to do all the crunching by itself. This benchmark would be able to give us some lights on the impact (if any) on the Fermi cards.
Cant wait to see the battle . Come on nVidia, release something by next month (even if its wire sticking out card , at least give us performance figures what we can expect)
It would have been great if the guys from Unigine allowed option for the Tesselation (like a drag or scale or something)
About FRIGGIN' time on the AMD Demos, they should've had those at launch, M0R0NS !! ![[:mousemonkey:2]](http://img.tomshardware.com/forum/uk/images/perso/2/mousemonkey.gif "[:mousemonkey:2]")
Seriously, you let someone else be the first to launch DX11 demos when you have the cards (in working order) to yourselves since May !?! Heck they had screenies from these demos in all the launch reviews, so they were likely ready to go, they just held off on launching them.
Talk about missed opportunity.
