3D graphics are made up of little more than very complicated math. With enough time, you could probably compute a ray marching by hand. Or, you could set up Excel to do it for you! Ray marching is a ...

In modern gaming, lighting is king and there’s never been a more wondrous thing than ray tracing. Ray tracing is an old, but now widely, available technology that realistically renders light and ...

Ray tracing is a lighting technique that brings an extra level of realism to games. It emulates the way light reflects and refracts in the real world, providing a more believable environment than what ...

Real-time ray tracing is finally starting to become commonplace in high-end PC games and even some PS5 and Xbox Series X games. Most of them come with a performance hit, letting the player choose ...

Ah, ray tracing. Although it’s been around for a long time in the film industry, it’s still a rather perplexing term, especially where video games are concerned. Essentially, it’s a technique that ...

As graphics cards become more advanced, they become better able to render more detailed, realistic graphics. Even if the games you're playing on your PC aren't realistic by design, better graphics is ...

Games look better with each passing year. We expect that much, but now and then a breakthrough promises a huge leap forward. Programmable shaders. Hardware transformation and lighting. Low-level APIs.

Although benchmarks are never perfect, they’re a useful tool for judging comparative performance. Basemark has just such a tool in its new In Vitro GPU test suite and kindly provided a copy to Android ...

It's time for us to talk about ray tracing once again, this time in Metro Exodus, the latest game to integrate support for Nvidia's RTX technology. Last time we checked out ray tracing in Battlefield ...
