NVIDIA has recently introduced the NVIDIA OptiX ray tracing engine, the world’s first interactive ray tracing engine to leverage the GPU.
The NVIDIA OptiX engine is a programmable ray tracing pipeline enabling software developers to easily bring new levels of realism to their applications using traditional C programming, and can be applicated in many fields including photorealistic rendering, automotive styling, acoustical design, optics simulation, volume calculations and radiation research.
Looks like AMD’s gonna be first with Dx11. I would love to see more improvements on videocards. That would drive prices lower and make gaming more affordable for everyone. =D
So there’s been rumors that when Windows 7 is released, Direcx 11 videocards will come out at the same time. And AMD has been pushing for Directx 11. So here are the improvements released so far:
- Improved Parallelism
- Improved Precision and Integer Processing
- Tight Integration between Compute Shaders and Rendering Pipeline
- Improved Ease of Programming and Better Memory Usage Efficiency
can you believe that's completely computer generated? RAYTRACING BABY!
