In a nutshell: We all know it's the GPU that does the heavy lifting with ray tracing in games. With dedicated compute units primed for rendering those realistic rays of light, the idea of running ray ...

A new DirectX update brings Shader Execution Reordering (SER) out of preview, and it's boosting ray-traced framerates by up to 90% in early tests.

Forward-looking: Recent big game releases appear to confirm that ray tracing and path tracing are the future of graphics rendering. However, these techniques remain prohibitively computationally ...

The gaming industry has been a forefront for technology since its early days, pushing the expectations of things like handheld computing, online communication, and of course, graphics. For the last ...
