Today, we're benchmarking and analyzing one of Nvidia's most interesting new technologies in development: RTX Neural Texture Compression (NTC), an AI-driven technology that uses Tensor Cores to compress and decompress data, thus reducing VRAM requirements by up to 80%.
When Nvidia unveiled the RTX 50-series graphics cards, the company also announced several neural rendering technologies alongside those GPUs. These technologies improve the representation of materials, provide more efficient compression of textures, and increase the quality of indirect light through inferred path-traced rays.
