When will the original demo be realeased.
Also what is the current status of direct storage for UE5.

Microsoft recently said they are in limited preview for Direct Storage for PC.

When will UE5 support it? And what kind of improvement delta should we look forward to compared to today’s performance?

Would we need 64GB of ram anymore once DirectStorage and Nvidia RTX IO is being leveraged?

It’s a mystery, same with DX12 Ultimate feature support like Sampler Feedback and Mesh Shading. It’s best to ask them about DirectStorage and DX12U as much as possible in their Q and A’s.

Yeah, hopefully everyone bombard them with the Q in this weeks stream about Nanite.
