GPU Ray Tracing Performance Comparisons [2021] *spawn*

Page 32 and 33 get into it quite nicely without all the examples.

 

I really can't be arsed to read the patent document. But temporal sorting would have to be for the motion-blur-specific ray tracing techniques that NVidia accelerates, wouldn't it?

 

Its like with the consoles, were far from seeing what these gpus can do.

 

At CES 2022, the tech industry’s biggest trade show, we’re announcing that RTX technologies are coming to The Day Before, Rainbow Six Extraction, Escape From Tarkov, SUPER PEOPLE, Hitman III, Voidtrain, The Anacrusis, Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis, Ratten Reich, and Midnight Ghost Hunt.

They also announced the release date for The Day Before, 21st of June

Also, a small 4k snippet for God of War. Looks like its gonna play amazing with mouse/keyboard. A dev also twitted a few weeks ago how wild it feels to play the game with m/kb after its been shackled to pads since the frachise exists

Yeah, we are going to need faster GPUs for ray tracing.

 

Guess that RT is out the window in console land for this one.

 

It's roughly the same as Cyberpunk 2077, which is where I thought it'd end up when there was some chatter around the system requirements that were posted with RT sans DLSS.

This feels like a stupid question, but shouldn’t the 3070ti have higher fps than the 3060?

 

Probably VRAM.

 

The game needs more VRAM than 8GB in this mode.
2080Ti being 200% of 3070 highlight this well.

 

And here am sitting with my 2018- 2080Ti still rocking on. Im more and more inclining this GPU will last the entire generation, its packing alot of raw power, very good ray tracing performance and has all the features such as DLSS aswell.
The only thing id be looking at upgrading might be the Zen2, but even the CPU is still capable enough, maybe for the entire generation aswell (upgraded 2019).

A huge difference indeed. Its a true next generation experience seeing it on YT (i dont have it yet). Doubt it will beat CP2077 on PC with all of its settings/RT maxed though, that still stands at the top of best graphics so far for gaming.

 

In it's own way the image on the left seems more plausible because it attempts to depict indirect diffuse lighting ...

 

Yeah why is the wall on the right in the RT shot so dark? It’s like they turned off the ambient light but forgot to turn on the indirect RT bounce.

 

It is not in any way a next gen experience. The geometric detail, physics, LOD, interactivity and textures are pretty much still rooted in last gen.

Yes, the lighting looks nice on PC with RT, but even that could be better. It appears to be a single bounce RT solution, so some spots appear too dark similar to the old Metro Exodus.

So yeah, eating a ton of performance for practically no reason. Lighting wise, Metro EE is a lot better and runs much faster as well.

 

Wait what ? The difference visually is clearly visible imo.
