Finally able to download Unreal Engine 4 tech demos, I've been waiting quite some time for these.

Hopefully this means they will also release the Samaritan and Infiltrator demos seeing as the "Tech Demo" community has been asking for these for a while and they are finally listening :)

Wish you could run one of those awesome Unreal Engine 4 tech demos on your own hardware instead of watching its lossy, pixellated video-grabs on YouTube? Well, now you can. Epic's "Elemental" tech demo for Unreal Engine 4 cropped up on the web, and we wasted no time in re-hosting it for you. The demo doesn't appear to be a public release, but something developers put together for demos to be run by Epic and its partners, only. To begin with, it doesn't come with an installer. You have to extract its files into a folder, and manually edit its settings INI file to specify resolution, window behaviour, and other settings. You then have to install VC++ 2013 runtime if you don't already have it (the redistributables are included in the archive), and then run the demo from the relevant batch file. Unreal included both 32-bit and 64-bit executables. When you're done drooling rainbows at the demo, only an Alt+F4 closes the thing down (there's no in-demo UI). There's no internal benchmark, and you're left to use third-party frame-rate loggers. These little issues aside, the demo sure makes Unreal Engine 4 look promising. We also added a collection of five other tech-demos for your viewing pleasure.

Effects Cave: Lets you walk through a cave with water and lighting effects.

Realistic Rendering: Renders an indoor scene with almost photorealistic quality.

Reflections: Shows off how to get the most of Unreal Engine 4's Real-time reflection system in a realistic, dark, and grungy environment.

Shooter Game: Serves as a basic template to a Quake 4 style multi player game.

Temple Mobile: Walkthrough in a temple.
Before running the above demos you might have to install the (included) Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redist Runtimes, x64 & x86.
Settings can be edited using the included batch file (e.g. ResolutionSizeX=1920; ResolutionSizeY=1080)

Can't wait to see what can be done with Unreal 4. Just in time for my new pc build to start. heck, I might finally get back into working with unreal .
I'll give these a spin when I'm not on a machine with a 8500gt and a i5 3330. I doubt somehow it'd run it ;).

I just ran the elemental demo with just the iGPU of the 4770K at 720P, Was stuttery but it seems really well optimized :)

I'm very interested to see CPU usage and how well it makes use of CPU cores as they've announced support for it on the xbone and the ps4. Graphics wise this is a major step forward.
I'll try and get my work rig to play ball with it but I seriously doubt I'll get anything more than a slide show ;).
 
I don't mean to be rude but after trying all the demos I think I need new pants.
My jaw hasn't dropped this much since the first time I saw Crysis, Especially the realistic rendering demo, Simply WOW!!!
 
just downloading now to give it a whirl on my rig, may record a vid an post it up for you guys
