NVIDIA has just demoed the world’s first GPU that can render a raytraced scene in real time – the Turing architecture powered RTX Quadro graphics card. NVIDIA has been teasing Turing architecture for quite some time now and this is the first time that we received our first look at the card. Needless to say, this is an absolute beast of a GPU with compute enough to decimate raytraced scenes with in real time.
Where the past year has had an absolute lul in information about NVIDIA’s upcoming architecture, SIGGRAPH has quenched our thirst with the equivalent of a fire hose. The company showed off what appears to be their Turing GT104 die and it is an absolute monster. They also simultaneously announced that this flagship processor will be shipping in the new RTX Quadro family. The RTX Quadro will be able to process 10 GigaRays per second.
