Quote:Original post by Evil SteveEarly next year - one of Vista/DXGI/D3D10's new features is virtualised memory [wink]
Is that all? How long till video cards have their own virtual memory? [smile]
But I wouldn't like to see the performance when I'm shifting bits of my texture between VRAM, Sys-RAM and my HDD [lol]

What if I need a sqrt lookup table with 8000 entries? a 8192x1x4 texture is only 32k. That's not much at all, so I am surprised that's not an option.
