you can achieve this with basic shader colour grading and bloom for 1/1000th of the cost.

Light probes can do this too at a fraction of the cost.

Bottom is simply too bright as it completely exposes the low poly count of the geometry, which cannot have been the original intention by the artists. Bottom is also unrealistic as you'd normally be blinded by the light from outside, making inside seem much darker.

Exactly, game engines do this once before the game is built and deployed.
Many orders of magnitude more efficient than trying to brute-force it several times per second on every single gaming device separately while the actual game is executing.

you're a complete fucking retard, PhysX was a company that made the technology and the card to utilise it, then Nvidia bought them and put the processor responsible for the physics simulation in every one of their graphics cards
Nvidia are the reason you DIDN'T need an extra card for PhysX, which is what the original PhysX company's plan was

Not necessarily. Undervolting does just that, reduce voltage at certain frequencies. The card still turbos or tries to turbo as high as it can within its thermal and power envelopes or it will crash with an unfinished or bad undervolt. In fact a card can even have higher frequencies when undervolted as it can reach higher frequencies for a set voltage without hitting a TDP limit. In this case you obviously wonβt be getting any thermal or acoustic gains though.

and without the mainstream consumer you wouldn't even have a quarter of the dogshit content you do have. you'd basically be paying out the ass for games from 3 generations ago due to lack of competition.

Can't even run it without my 5090 crashing to desktop for some reason. But I've tested path tracing for Alan Wake 2 and RTX Portal and it does look pretty decent. Even if it eviscerates framerate. Not sure what's going on with cyberpunk. If it's my hardware or the game. Game straight refusing to get into the menu. On older drivers i can get into the menu, but it crashes in game anyway.

TL;DR you're expecting massive leaps in shader counts for native rendering perfornance and they're coming slower than normal. Advancing the tensor core tech is currently the concept that will produce the biggest performance leap.

CP's not even a good implementation. It's just greasy, and people think shiny = good looking.
Note: these are the same people who post in the "I had reflections on the PSX! It had ray tracing????????????" threads. They don't know anything about ray tracing other than reflections. Since CP has a lot off nearly every surface, it must be good.

Aegia was the one who wanted to sell an individual PhysX card that would just do the physics computation, but that was before Nvidia bought those guys out and physx was put on the card. Physx was also never ever used in the way the Aegia guys claimed it would be (no game ever had realistic glass breaking or realistic water motion)
well...WAS on Nvidia cards, until the 5000 line and it ain't no more I guess.

It depends on the game honestly and mostly pathtracing. In Cyberpunk playing a few hours with pathtracing and then going back to raster just makes the game look "not right".
>>719938667 (OP)
Non-RT methods like SVOGI can do it almost as accurately at a fraction of the performance cost. I mean Crysis 2 had (non-baked) GI with back in 2011. Sure it looked pretty rough but it was technically more impressive than throwing a comparatively huge amount of computing power at the problem and pretty much brute forcing it.

Which is why Warhorse downgraded the first game for it to run on consoles. Among gutting the forests in the game and plenty of other things from the beta. It running bad at that time was not necessarily a bad thing because it would have just been a game that would be a good benchmark for PC hardware in general, because of it's technical achievements. It could have easily been toggle option for people using worse hardware. What they opted for was doing everything so the shitty PS4 and xbox one's potato hardware could run it. That's the real reason they did it. Warhorse are a console first studio.

With properly implemented raytracing you can have all kinds of light or sound based tricks that would require hardcoded events in a traditional game. You can have sound that seems to come from a direction it actually doesn't because of traytraced sound. You can have games where inferring things from a room you cannot actually see is possible solely because of raytraced lighting bouncing off of visible walls and into the players' eyes. You might as well ask what use is there in introducing a third dimension into game worlds when you can already jump and shoot in 2d. It's all about using the new features properly

Which one is good and which one is bad? The top would be an accurate depiction of mid-day when the shadows are heavier and you don't have as much red light bouncing everywhere, but the bottom suits a low sun angle more at specific times of the day and gives a more nostalgic feel, the way you feel when the sun sets.
I'd have to see them in-game to know which one is better, one just has more red light reflecting (the way light works in many cases and in art), the other has a more defined mid-day sun and heavy shadow look. Neither of them look outright better, light doesn't work the same every day or every time of the day.
T. exterior house painter, so don't try to bullshit me on how light should look under a shadow.

Raytracing benefits devs and Nvidia more than it benefits consumers. These lighting effects could already be accomplished if devs took the time to do it, but instead, they take the easy way out, which results in massive performance issues for a slight visual upgrade that may not even look better.

I have RT capable card and only time I activated RT was in Doom Eternal, saw my muddy reflection in a window on a building, I said cool and turned it off. Why would I tripple the usage of my GPU for something like this I dont know. Games had reflections since 1996

Don't know about other games but I've been replaying CP77 with path tracing on after getting a 5070 ti and it genuinely makes the game look so much better. Everything just looks flat without it

RTX never justifies the performance loss. It just doesn't. The card you use or whether or not you can afford it is irrelevant. It's the same thing as godrays or any other gimmick of its time. Calling it out for the lazy bullshit that it is will always be justified. It's just a con to sell cards. It won't be implemented well enough for another 10 years.

Asa game developer this is amusing, shadows are 1000x more difficult to implement and optimize than "reflections" (in this case just cloning and mirroring the light)

OP is correct, though. The backlash against raytracing is driven entirely by poor brownoids who have shitty PCs.

Figures a GTAslopper would also be a raytracing apologist.

Too hard to focus man. Distracting details that you focus on more than real life because it's a screen. If it's same price... O ok I'll take dat den.

Raytracing doesnt make the game more fun so im not shitting out more money for it to look like 10% better in a screenshot. If you feel like cramming in every graphical gimmick there is in UE5 into your game im not buying it.

Finally with RT we can have shadows properly implemented

You don't have to waste time coping in public. Cost isn't the issue and never was.
