PCI express and tS / Was: PCI Express - Semantics 2004-08-15 - By emmanuel asset

Hi all,
I have read with interest the recent topics about PCI express and
Roman's posts about future PC hardware.
Actually, the video card is used for real-time rendering of the
workspace's scene. But when we press the render_to_file icon, it is the
processor that does the job.
Actually, the Pointersoft 3DeXplorer's real-time engine renders almost
in the same level of quality as tS's computed render. That engine
envolves both processor and video card chips.
With these new motherboards and PCIe video cards, can we expect in a
close future new versions of trueSpace able to render animations in
almost real time ?
Emmanuel
