Ah shit I'm not gonna do it. This year is gonna be new cpu ram and motherboard, I expect to get 2 years outta a premium vid card & my 1080Ti has a way to go yet. Too often these improvements are so marginal ya end up feeling rorted. I spent the local equiv of US $993 on my last card & TBH the day to day gaming improvement wasn't huge.
This latest upgrade is software dependent, in other words improvements will only happen if a game has implemented ray tracing & many shops will decide to hold off on the expense of that until they see what rtx uptake has happened.
Feels like just another 3d gaming mess.
When hardware is really expensive it has to offer an across the board improvement otherwise neither developers nor gamers want to take the chance on cursing themselves with a white elephant.
During the Gamescom NVIDIA event yesterday, the presentation on the new RTX cards, of course, was raytracing supported games. One slide caught my interest, showing 21 titles that are going to support RTS.
For RTX to succeed, they need proper implementation. And it seems that NVIDIA has been working hard with many game developers to get the new technology supported. The slide shown shows 21 titles with Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Battlefield V having support at launch from what we heard.
Ark: Survival Evolved
Assetto Corsa Competizione
Atomic Heart (2019)
Battlefield V
Control
Dauntless
In Death
Enlisted
Final Fantasy XV
The Forge Arena
Fractured Lands
Hitman 2
Justice
JX3
Mechwarrior V: Mercenaries
Metro Exodus
PlayerUnknown’s BattleGrounds
Remnant from the Ashes (2019)
Serious Sam 4: Planet Badass
Shadow of the Tomb Raider
We Happy Few
In fact, more of the titles below support Nvidia's AI-driven DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) than real-time Ray Tracing, with 16 games supporting DLSS while 11 support Ray Traced elements.
Below is a list of all the games below that will support Real-Time Ray Tracing;
- Assetto Corsa Competizione
- Atomic Heart
- Battlefield V
- Control
- Enlisted
- Justice
- JX3
- MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries
- Metro Exodus
- ProjectDH
- Shadow of the Tomb Raider
Below is a list of games that will support Nvidia DLSS;
- Ark: Survival Evolved
- Atomic Heart
- Dauntless
- Final Fantasy XV

- Hitman 2
- Islands of Nyne
- Justice
- JX3
- Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries
- Player Unknown's Battlegrounds
- Remnant: From the Ashes
- Serious Sam 4: PLanet Badass
- Shadow of the Tomb Raider
- The Forge Arena

Kind of poorly titled. Doesn't mean "just" Ray Tracing but either (ray tracing or DLSS) or both.
The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.
Ray tracing is a simulation of real world lighting. It's what is used in pre-rendered CG like movies (i.e. what is used by renderers in programs like Maya, 3DS Max, etc.). Typically a high-end machine might take several seconds to several minutes to render out a single frame at even a relatively low resolution like 1080. That's why production CG is done via distributed rendering, i.e. render farms. Hundreds of processors running in parallel.
Real-time ray tracing has been the holy grail of graphics for a long time. Game engines use a lot of trickery and faking to render their scenes in real time. There's a trade-off in fidelity and accuracy for this though, which is why ray tracing is desirable. Unfortunately though it's currently impossible to achieve high fidelity fully rendered ray tracing in real time (regardless of what bullshit nVidia says). What you are going to see with RTX is small, trivial stuff, and as Nodrim posted above you are going to pay a heavy performance price for it.
Not a chance I will be upgrading any time soon with those prices.
My MSI 980Ti gaming x is holding up nicely thanks. Would have been nice for the VR boost.
Not surprised, you saw it during the event. The moment RTX was put on, there were frame drops in their showcases.
Of course I saw that. I also saw how they fucked up with the visual quality of the games to make the ray tracing feel more wow. But articles like the one above are not for people like us.
I don't give a fuck about derp-tracing, but the fact that its title starts with a '2', instead of a '1', surely makes it worth double the price? That alone is worth it, and brilliant engineering, which should be paid for
I mean. Have you any idea as to the work needed in changing a '1' to a '2'??? It's not easy you know, and requires technology only available from Nvidia. We have come a long way, and have to admire and reward them as such.
