In August 2019, Nvidia announced Minecraft RTX, an official Nvidia-developed patch for the game Minecraft adding real-time DXR ray tracing exclusively to the Windows 10 version of the game. The whole game is, in Nvidia's words, "refit" with path tracing , which dramatically affects the way light, reflections, and shadows work inside the engine.
Nvidia RTX (also known as Nvidia GeForce RTX under the GeForce brand) is a professional visual computing platform created by Nvidia, primarily used in workstations for designing complex large-scale models in architecture and product design, scientific visualization, energy exploration, and film and video production, as well as being used in mainstream PCs for gaming.
In September 2018, Nvidia introduced their GeForce RTX and Quadro RTX GPUs, based on the Turing architecture, with hardware-accelerated ray tracing using a separate functional block, publicly called an "RT core". This unit is somewhat comparable to a texture unit in size, latency, and interface to the processor core.
The GeForce 10 series is a series of graphics processing units developed by Nvidia, initially based on the Pascal microarchitecture announced in March 2014. This design series succeeded the GeForce 900 series , and is succeeded by the GeForce 16 series and GeForce 20 series using the Turing microarchitecture .
The lineup, designed to compete with AMD's Radeon RX 6000 series of cards, consists of the entry-level and previously laptop-exclusive RTX 3050 and laptop-exclusive RTX 3050 Ti, mid-range RTX 3060, upper-midrange RTX 3060 Ti, high-end RTX 3070, RTX 3070 Ti, RTX 3080 10 GB, RTX 3080 12 GB and enthusiast RTX 3080 Ti, RTX 3090, and RTX 3090 Ti ...
With the GeForce 20 series, Nvidia introduced the RTX development platform. RTX uses Microsoft's DXR, Nvidia's OptiX, and Vulkan for access to ray tracing. [54] The ray tracing technology used in the RTX Turing GPUs was in development at Nvidia for 10 years. [55] Nvidia's Nsight Visual Studio Edition application is used to inspect the state of ...
Symmetric multiprocessing – Like Windows, RTX / RTX64 is based on a symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) architecture. [7] Depending on the real-time needs, users can choose the number of processors to dedicate to RTX / RTX64 to run real-time processes. RTX can use up to 31 dedicated processors; RTX64 can use up to 63.
To play the following in 3D, as well as convert over 650 existing games, [6] requires Nvidia 3D Vision Glasses with a 120 Hz monitor, or red and cyan glasses with slower monitors, Windows Vista or later, enough system memory (2GB recommended), a compatible CPU (Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Athlon X2 or higher) and a compatible Nvidia video card ...
