The video basically compares DirectX 9 to DirectX 11. You can definitely tell that tessellation can make games look even more realistic. However, as of right now, there are only a few games out that fully utilize all of the Direct X 11 features and if the Heaven benchmark is a legitimate look at how future games will look, then the future of PC gaming looks great :mrgreen:

LOL! Just so you know Bunny, it's only a benchmark and any computer can run this. The only thing would differ is that if your PC has the hardware that supports the DirectX 11 features. For those features, you have to have Windows 7 + a DirectX 11 compliant card (Nvidia GTX 400-series or the AMD Radeon 5000-series.) Can't wait until Crytek releases the DirectX 11 patch for Crysis 2 (tessellation FTW!)
