Lets say 50 years form now, how advanced will GPU's be? Its a good question, ive played the latest top agmes and I am utterly blown away by the power and the detail. With the nex xBox 360 its the same, I was blown away. The poeple, animations, animals, cars look REAL! What about 100 years form now! IMAGINE people what we are talking about. Subtract 100 years from this date that you are curently living. Now what technology did they ahve then? add 100 years and boom you are abck where you started! The diffrence is AMAZING! 100 years ago they didnt even have video games lol, I think. Add 100 years now. Whats happening! The technology and everything has changed and upgraded. Simply amazing, I cant wait!

It's insane, we can expect cards with 2gb of ram within the end of 2006 when Windows Vista comes out. Personally I think we're going to soon me in the age of true 3d gaming within teh next couple of years or so, I have no idea where we'll be in 50-100 years. THere's this one theory that says computer power will double every couple of months, so that'll be just crazy cool

Maybe in 50 to 100 years, we;d be playing "IN" the game itself, who knows?
I've heard about those before, they're called virtual games, but it might be improved to make users/players feel like as if they're "IN"the game it self. As for CPU speeds doubling every few months, in 50 to 100 years, they had better think of a way to cool down processors faster than the processor it self heats up.

50 years from now - hrm at this rate we might not even have GPU's anymore, but rather a whole new computer architecture (no CPU anyone?
) - as that seems to be the limiting factor. If we could get fully fledged VR in my lifetime I'd be happy though

Yea, I agree with you all the feature is amazing... In about 100 years I think one CD-R will be 100 GB and one harddrive will be 10 000 Gb lol
 but then one game will be arround 30GB very much lol. If I would still have my drive as I have now then the game cannt be installed becuse my whole drive is 32GB . I think the feature is realy amazing! Arround 38 years age we dident een have a TV in color??? LOL But now we even have Cellphones where we can wach tv  . So the time goes fast. And I hope that it will keep going fast, but not too fast .

Within the next years, I think the graphics card will really die out. It will be replaced by extremely fast IGP's. Or, The graphics card will take a amazing new turn, and be upgradeable. Like, being able to upgrade the RAM like on a mobo, or being able to just drop in a new GPU on your existing board.

QUOTE In about 100 years I think one CD-R will be 100 GB There are 200gb 'holographic' DVD's in development now, expected release this year or next...Whats amazing is that the computer is stilll quite young, at only around for about 20 years. I would be more wanting to see in about 20-30 years. |
