Nvidia publishes three technical demos with ray tracing
Table of contents:
- NVIDIA three Ray Tracing demos for RTX and GTX graphics cards
- The following GeForce graphics cards are DXR compatible:
NVIDIA made it possible for Ray Tracing effects to now be compatible with the GTX 'Pascal' series. With this move, NVIDIA somehow 'democratizes' the use of RTX effects through Windows DXR, allowing the GTX series to be supported as well, but also serving as an incentive to upgrade to the RTX series.
NVIDIA three Ray Tracing demos for RTX and GTX graphics cards
To get an idea of how Ray Tracing works, especially on those non-RTX graphics cards, NVIDIA makes available the technical demonstrations of Star Wars, Atomic Heart and Justice.
The Star Wars demo is best known, undoubtedly, with its studies on reflections on Captain Phasma's breastplate. Atomic Heart is another one that uses RTX for reflections and shadows, while Justice adds caustics to that equation. If you have a Turing graphics card, you can try these demos in all their glory, and with DLSS technology to improve performance.

If you have a GTX 'Pascal' graphics card, you will not have that DLSS performance improvement mode available, so the performance would be worse. Follow the embedded links for our downloads of these technical demos.
The following GeForce graphics cards are DXR compatible:
- GeForce GTX 1660 TiGeForce GTX 1660NVIDIA TITAN Xp (2017) NVIDIA TITAN X (2016) GeForce GTX 1080 TiGeForce GTX 1080GeForce GTX 1070 TiGeForce GTX 1070GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
And all those notebooks with equivalent Pascal and Turing architectures.
All DXR effects are compatible with the Pascal series of graphics cards and the GTX 1660 and 1660 Ti via the latest Game Ready 425.31 WHQL drivers.
Press Release SourceNvidia will present the gameworks ray tracing technology this Monday
NVIDIA and Microsoft have teamed up to create GameWorks Ray Tracing and RTX Tech technologies, which will enable the next generation of NVIDIA graphics cards to manage Ray Tracing lighting effects in real time.
Nvidia develops a new temporary antialiasing technique with the help of ray tracing
Temporary antialiasing techniques have become very popular in recent years, allowing the removal of saw teeth with Nvidia has published a report analyzing a new form of temporary antialiasing, which ends the problem of current techniques.
