Literally what the fuck is this, pls don’t tell me you’re cutting your performance in half so your character can see themselves in the mirror more clearly.
Dafuq is the point of Ray tracing?

It's a graphical improvement with a cool name. So you can add it as one of the bullet points on the box and consumers will be more inclined to consume.

Don’t forget it tanks your fps, that’s one of the features

It's real lighting.
Robert Roberts

allows them to add an extra zero to that $
now fucking pay them
Camden Cook
because it can look nice but yeah performance ain't where it needs to be on the 3000 series, I would have thought buying a 3070 would get me 60fps+ in all games but turning raytracing on can dip @1440p fairly often
Michael Rivera
The point is that it replaces the shit that devs have to fake now with an actual realistic representation of how light works, and those fakes are good but often come with limitations that the games/engines/art are designed around.
Owen Cox
Yea, the difference is clear
Gabriel Fisher
I struggled to tell much of a difference in this game, as performance mode looked incredible anyway.
But let me ask you this- is this how it's always gonna be in this generation? You choose either fluid movement with performance or better lighting with ray tracing? Or is it a developer thing where soon games will be made to do both?
Ayden Powell
So basically you’re tanking your performance so that you can see your reflection in a puddle
Cameron Garcia
An actual intelligent post on Any Forums Any Forums?! How dare you user! You are supposed to say: "Cope and consoom OP" like the other mindless retards who post here.
Jordan Turner
The irony is, in most games you can't even see yourself in the mirror anyway. It's just not rendered. See Cyberpunk. RT will be amazing when it gets the TXAA treatment, or in 5+ years when the cards can actually run it. But right now it's still nothing but a meme. 30% less FPS for what essentially amounts to anything between 50% worse or 10% better lighting effects, on average.
Ian Robinson
no I'm tanking my performance so I can get neat looking visuals in a game where FPS doesn't matter
so long as it's 60fps+ in a story game idgaf
now if it's a FPS game where I want smooth response time, then yes I'll turn everything to low to get 100fps+
Xavier Morris
The point is to excuse selling you expensive GPUs. If GPUs were solely focused on rasterization still, every game would be hitting 1080p/240fps without breaking a sweat, and the GPUs would be cheaper.

It takes a lot of work to make fake lighting look good. RT is an easy way to reduce the workload of artists which we need to do if we want to keep pushing the boundaries of graphics technology in video games.
Asher Richardson
Caleb Allen
How did you get 60fps with RT on, PC?
Angel Ramirez
What happened to Nvidia hairworks? It made hair in games look and move realistically.
Samuel Miller
Surely raytracing tech can do more than just some reflections and shadows.
Aaron Rogers
Damn, RT wins, hands down
Lincoln Perry
PS5 only has RT shadows, not lighting or reflections
Adrian Perez
That’s all it does?
Jackson Thomas
I regret not turning it to RT when I first got to Knowhere. Walked around taking it all in for like 70 minutes.
Robert King
Is PS5 capable of doing global illumination and shadow RT? Doesn’t the SeX have better hardware for that or something?
Daniel Ramirez
It's more of a proof of concept than anything. Gamers feel like they are playing a superior game because their metallic trash cans and other misc objects in their games are now reflected better. Basically nvidia tricked retards and midwits into paying for developement of research into these technologies. Yes you can runs ray tracing in real time now but with noisy artifacts all over the screen and always something else got to give.l in order to have decent framerates.
David Taylor
>PS5 only has RT shadows, not lighting or reflections
Is this for real
Joshua Hill
The most extreme case I saw on my PC was Quake 2 RTX.
OpenGL: 1000 fps (because he cap there)
RTX ON (Global Illumination: low): 45 fps
That's more than 90% performance loss.
Aaron Moore
>Dafuq is the point of Ray tracing?
to get retards to spend more money
Jayden Hughes
Did people really think the next gen consoles can actually raytrace? You retards have any clue how much more the consoles would cost?
Benjamin Butler
It's not. RT is merely higher quality reflections.
The fundamental problem that is holding video game graphics back is proper light simulation, that is simulating lighting produced by every object in a scene.
Reflections in comparison is a irrelevant detail.
Jayden Scott
No, i don't, Poindexter. I'm but a consoomer, I like to sit down and play a dang game, I don't know the ins and outs of your technobabble.
Jaxon Gutierrez
I wouldn't say that this is running ray tracing in real time. The games are being rendered the same way as always, but now there is a single iteration of raytracing on the scene (for a decent image you need hundreds, sometimes thousands of iterations) that generates an extremely low quality image that is then "fixed" by an algorithm that has been trained through AI.
William Wilson
No, it's the same with dying light 2 on PS5 the RT mode is 1080/30 and only RT shadows, no global illumination or reflections.
I think metro exodus is the only game with gi on ps5.
