Ok, I've upgraded to a P4 3ghz machine and I'll be getting a 9700 pro tomorrow (for $135!), so if any of you know some tech demos that will push my machines capabilites a bit and wow me with some awesome visuals, I'd greatly appreciate it. [:)]

Hehe.. I can't believe the Assembly party is still going. I used to download those demos all the time on the Amiga over 10 years ago (has it been that long ago!)

Anyways, I spotted this really cool tech demo. It's 20mbs and it's amazing [:)] [url="http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/rthdribl/"]Real-Time High Dynamic Range Image-Based Lighting[/url]. (this demo is 2 years old [:0])
