Thanks for that. Not got all the way through, as it is a lot to take in but massively impressed with what they have achieved with 1 sample per pixel and denoising. Very impressive.

Nice video from Jackfrags showing some advantages and some room for improvement in RT on BFV, runs at between 60-80fps on 2080ti @ 1080p atm he reckons, also reiterates Dice's promises to DF to improve performance further.

This is the method unigine use, as seen in superposition.

Not RT related, but Turing also has full support for Microsoft's new Variable Rate Shading. Could have some nice implications for VR and eye tracking.

The interview also reveals that Battlefield V has been optimized for 6 cores and 12 threads CPUs and that there is no support for Nvidia SLI.

At 1080p?
LOL

It will probably be an improvement visually too as the effects in the demo were over the top and unrealistic.

Sweeny telling it like it is. Optimising for MGPU is time-consuming. They simply don't see enough incentive.
The demo on Youtube looks distracting. And why is there wood and eyeball reflections? EYEBALL REFLECTIONS? WIND YOUR NECK IN IT IS AN ONLINE SHOOTER OMG!!!
You will be watching for that enemy to shoot i barely notice any reflection or hyper shadows nevermind eyeballs but out of touch (We dont play our own games) snake oil capitalists will try thier damm best to tell you Ray Tracing matters.
Anyways i am off to bed because the sheer stupidity of people hurts my brain in these situations. I guess i know now what they mean by one every minute because even if i boycott this people will still buy into it.

Battlefield V's Ray Tracing tech is currently exclusive to Nvidia RTX products
I thought folk were saying that DXR wasn't exclusive to RTX?

People are saying its not exclusive to NVidia. I thought it was clear it would be exclusive to RT cards as you cannot run it on a none ray tracing card as useable speeds.
A good comparison would be early Direct3D, you didn't "need" a 3D accelerator to run D3D games (only OpenGL ones), you "could" run a D3D game on a 4MB S3 Virge if you wanted, however if you did then the transparency around objects would show as black boxes and it would generally look awful (worse than software rendering). Later D3D games simply refused to run in D3D mode without a 3D accelerator because doing so was stupid.
That's basically the route DICE are taking, disabling DXR on cards that couldn't handle it anyway to prevent people who don't know what it is turning it on then moaning the game runs like ****.
