3Dmark will have a new ray tracing test at the end of the year
Table of contents:
UL Benchmarks has announced that two new benchmarks will be added to the 3DMark application later this year, aimed at PCs with integrated graphics and graphics cards capable of executing Ray Tracing in real time.
3DMark works on the first benchmark with Ray Tracing
The first of these two becnhmarks will arrive in October under the name "3DMark Night Raid, " which is an "ideal test" for laptops and other mobile computing devices. UL has commented that this benchmark will be compatible with Windows 10 on ARM devices.
3DMark "Ray Tracing Benchmark" (Untitled) will be the world's first UL Benchmarks test with Real-Time Ray Tracing (DXR), using the latest features added to Microsoft's DirectX 12 API to combine Ray Tracing with techniques traditional rasterization. The test is designed to run on all systems that support the DirectX Ray Tracing API later this year.
They publish a small preview in video
In order to run the new benchmark (which does not yet have an official name), it will be necessary to have Windows 10, since it uses DirectX 12. UL Benchmark clarified that its new test will not be published until the Windows 10 October update is available at public. Right now, the major new Windows 10 update doesn't have a firm release date, but it will at some point in the remainder of 2018, that's for sure.
UL released a video demonstrating what the new Ray Tracing-based test looks like (above), with all the new lighting techniques and realistic shading.

New rumors indicate that amd navi will have ray tracing
It is believed that Navi could be presented at E3 2019, with a subsequent launch on July 7, so we are very close to launch.
Amd rdna2 will arrive this year: big navi: 7nm +, ray tracing, vrs ...
AMD will launch in March the new RDNA2 graphics cards: 7nm +, Ray Tracing and VRS technology that will improve performance and consumption.
