    Demos for graphics cards

    Apart from 3DMark05 what other eye candy is out there for us to stress our graphics cards ?.

    Do manufacturers like ATI etc. produce demos ?.

    It doesn't really stress a modern card but I could watch the Popular Demo for hours

    Ahhh, I remember the good old Amiga and the endless ray-traced, bouncy-spinny ball, rotating chess board days. Wanders off daydreaming ...

    Anyway, back to reality - the only demos I have seen/come across by accident, are tech demos where programmers have demonstrated texture compression by squeezing the demo into a seemingly impossibly tiny exe file.
