‘Cyberpunk 2077’ is getting a path-tracing 'Overdrive Mode' in April
— titles with relatively primitive graphics — in supporting the technology. In addition, Nvidia announced the availability of a developer kit to pave the way for the next generation of bleeding-edge graphics.
While ray tracing follows a single beam of light across a virtual scene, path tracing follows the light as it bounces around an environment, more realistically mimicking how it works in the physical world. It determines how nearby surfaces reflect or absorb the light, producing physically accurate soft shadows that more easily convince our brains that we’re viewing a natural, real-life scene.
However, we need to keep our expectations in check for the moment: You’ll need the most powerful Nvidia RTX 40-series GPUs to enjoy’s path tracing . Still, Nvidia is eager to nudge the industry toward what will be increasingly possible for consumer graphics in the coming years. Nvidia says two of its technologies were vital in producing this milestone: DLSS 3 and Shader Execution Reordering . “DLSS allows games to render 1/8th of the pixels, then uses AI and GeForce RTX Tensor Cores to reconstruct the rest, dramatically multiplying frame rates, while delivering crisp, high-quality images that rival native resolution,” Nvidia explained in its announcement.Great deals on consumer electronics delivered straight to your inbox, curated by Engadget’s editorial team.
