    During E3 many new games supporting Ray Tracing were announced and that along with the announcement of AMD Navi made me think? "Can the cheapest RTX capable graphics card actually run ray tracing. Does the addition RTX hardware that costs so much actually matter?"

    The percentages you are showing are wrong. The formula is:
    ((RTXoff_fps / RTXon_fps) - 1) *100=%loss of fps
    which gives different results.
    What you are trying to say gets along good with the calculations, but notice that the %difference of fps drops is higher...

      what is this the formula for, exactly? like the percentage change gives me a value of -23% just as in the video, the percentage difference gives me a value of ~26%, but theres no denying that 96 is 129.7% of 74. And yet, 74 is 77% of 96. So could we say that rtx off is 29.7% faster than rtx on for the 2060, but that rtx on is 23% slower than rtx off? That would feel very wrong to say, so i am definitively missing something. I dont even know what to put into google to answer this question.

      Nice, but wrong.
      The loss of performance compared to rtx on, is what he calculated. What you calculated is the win of perfomance, when turning rtx off. You compare the numerator to the devisor. With your formula you compare rtx off to rtx on. That is important.
      Imagine you are driving on the highway with 100 km/h and someone is overtaking you with 120 km/h. The total difference is 20 km/h.
      From your perspective, that overtaking care is 20 % faster than you. But from the Overtaker's perspective, you are "just" 16,7 % slower.
      You gain 29,7 % fps when turning RTX off. You lose 23 % fps, when turning it on. Compared to the current frame rate.

      That's not how it is. They specifically chose an old game for the demonstration because it's a special case. Unlike with other games that use regular rendering techniques with ray tracing for things like shadows or reflection, the entirety of Quake II is rendered with ray tracing. That's the reason why the non-RTX card had 15 fps without global illumination and the ray tracing card had about 52 fps.
      It's just a demonstration. It's obviously unnecessarily costly to do it this way as the visual difference is barely noticeable compared to traditional rendering and it would be impossible to do with more modern titles. It just shows what RTX can do to supplmenent modern titles.

    The Minecraft one is not RTX. It's path tracing. It's also not fully path traced, it still uses shadow maps for the sun and I think it uses ray marching for the volumetric fog. It's also a software implementation of path tracing, so it's only using the raw compute power of the GPU.
    The official Microsoft version of Minecraft RTX will offer a fully path traced solution and will take advantage of the RTX hardware.

    This video is so wrong, in so many ways.. first of all:
    - "Battlefield V" uses DXR/RTX for reflections
    - "Shadow of the Tomb Raider" uses DXR/RTX for shadows and dynamic light sources
    - "Metro Exodus" uses DXR/RTX for global illumination (only that... not for reflections...)
    - "Minecraft" (the mod, you show here) uses Pathtracing on a GPU for reflections and indirect lighting (it does NOT use DXR or RTX! ...NOT at all)
    - "Quake 2" uses DXR/RTX for global illumination (like "Metro Exodus")
    When you got these points right and understand them, you can compare the results you get and there are the next problems with this video:
    - You show us just the average framerate (this felt a little bit to short for a detailed comparison).
    - You say that you don't test on comparable settings but show the results of the test which is not comparable.
    - Your video is about comparing RTX on and RTX off... still you show us results without comparable values from gameplay with/without RTX.
    - You try to compare hardware in this video but your conclusion is pointing on the software and its developers? (so why even compare the RTX 2060 with your GTX 1660 Ti then?)
    Other problems I can tell:
    - You say some functionalities are "badly implemented" but you have zero arguments for that thesis. Adding a feature to a game after its release is not automaticly equal to "badly implemented". That would mean every game with patches and changes gets worse, wouldn't it?
    - I don't understand why "Metro Exodus" implemented the functionalities better... they implemented something really different... seriously.
    - What does "full raytracing support" even mean? Should the game not even rasterize diffuse faces or do you mean global illumination, shadows, dynamic light sources and reflections at once? It's like saying: "The game does not use physX, hairworks, shadowmaps, screenspace reflections, video encoding, ... at once during runtime, it's not even have full GPU support." What do you expect developers to do?
    - Again the functionality in SoTR is "bad" because the game does not use global illumination, I guess. I really don't know what's the point in this.
    - Quake 2 is probably a good game for your comparison but you miss the values without RTX because reasons... I guess.
    - You say that the consoles will use raytracing but you don't say they will use a GPU from AMD. It's not even settled that AMD will use special hardware for it rather than a software/driver solution.
    After all these problems shown, I ask myself: Is RTX and its functionalities only "properly" implemented (in your perspective) when the game's benchmarks and tests support the marketing team of NVidia? Is this your point in this video? I don't understand why except you want to sell RTX-cards to us.

    I was just laughing when that 1660 was running Quake 2 at 15 fps. That just sounds pathetic for it being a 20 year old game. I don’t care if it’s ray tracing or not. The game is older than I am. Shows how taxing ray tracing is.

    I see it like this: Raytracing is probably the future. I mean... when well-implemented it might become something like bump-mapping (yes I'm using the old name), dynamic shadows and tesselation in a few years. But right now? I'm seriously considering a partner-board RX5700XT over the 2070 Super because I don't find ray-tracing interesting enough at the moment. By the time it probably will be (after next-gen consoles have forced implementation in most mainstream titles) the 2070 super will probably... not render the best framerates at 1440p with RT enabled and is due for an upgrade. So right now, unless you're going 2080Super or 2080TI I wouldn't make RT a big factor in your decision for which GPU to buy.

    • @sizhema9702

    Most of your stuff is terribly wrong , Metro Exodus uses Ray Tracing for Global Illumination , not just shadows , that's Shadow of the Tomb Raider , HUGE difference.
    There is no such thing as "full ray tracing" The whole point of RAY tracing is that it can be mixed with Rasterization , the full rays traced from the camera pov is called Path Tracing , Quake 2 RTX isn't Ray Tracing , its actually all Path Tracing with added sprites for explotions.
    Also the 8800GT was maybe the best gpu launch of all time , both in performance and bang x buck , not comparable with the 20 series.

    Minecraft raytracing shaderpack is Seus PTGI, which is developed by sonic ether, not that youtube you probably watched with the 970. The shaders mod runs on optifine, which is a mod that allows developers to develop shaderpacks for minecraft. Optifine doesnt even use RTX cores at all, and uses a software implementation of raytracing instead of hardware

    I was also against Ray Tracing. "Oh, it's not well implemented", "Nah, not many games are using it", "Nope, who cares, no need for this tech, I'll stick with what I have" - I was telling to myself. But deep down I knew: it is gonna be future. Maybe not now, but sooner then we think. So why those negative thoughts? Because we cannot afford the hardware. We try to make ourselves feel better saying to ourselves "Ray Tracing is crap!", because we can't allocate money to new, expensive hardware. So we smear this tech with mud. And yet. We know it's the future, like any other new graphics tech back in the day. "720p is good enough, who cares about 1080p!" - some said this, too. Now "who cares about 4K, 1080p is good!" - while 4K will become standard relatively soon.
    RTX is good and needs tome to get momentum. And when people be able to afford it, they will change the tone.

    You need to bare in mind when taking console in to consideration in this case that although console will have ray tracing they definitely won't have rtx so what does this mean for future of rtx. I'm really not convinced that it will be around for much longer amd and intel are going to be using the more open form of ray tracing and given that more people use amd (because of console) and intel (because of igpu) it will mean that devs will be better to place optimization in this area given amd also have presence in graphics cards and by this time next year so will Intel. I feel that rtx was rushed out cos perhaps Nvidia got wind of ray tracing coming to console and wanted to be first to the party. If you think about it it makes sense cos most people think ray tracing is rtx and rtx is ray tracing when this is not the case at all
