It is not "how well". It's binary : either it is exposed, or it is not exposed by the driver. You can't do anything if it isn't exposed. Some cards implement it through dynamic parallelism (eg. implementations on the GTX 1060/1070/1080/1660 all go this way), some others through more dedicated...

I would not speculate around the usefulness of DXR wrt performance. GT 520 cards are crazy (crazy) slow, only having 48 shader cores, and yet, they've been sold massively and are great to experiment with and develop against for developers with a limited budget. The fact that we "speculate"...

The following post shows DXR raytracing is supported by the 1660 (which is totally advertised and expected): https://forum.beyond3d.com/posts/2122911/ If you scroll down the inset, you will find : RaytracingTier : D3D12_RAYTRACING_TIER_1_0 (10) However I can't get to information relevant for...

First, raytracing is not exposed by the Vulkan driver on 1650's: https://developer.nvidia.com/vulkan-driver Vulkan Ray Tracing In addition to Vulkan 1.2, these Vulkan beta developer drivers also support the Khronos provisional VK_KHR_ray_tracing extension. The core ray tracing functionality...

I'm a little confused by your reply. My question is crystal-clear. I don't even know you mention RTX if not to complexify the question. The question lies around DXR, namely DirectX Raytracing. It starts here, and ends here. Forget about RTX/Ray tracing cores or whatever. Only DXR. Only. Things...

Hi, Can anybody tell me if GTX 1650 yes or no supports DirectX Raytracing (DXR)? Actual performance does not matter, but DirectX support is vital. This is important, because we would like to order several of these cards for a school. The information I can read over the web is not conclusive...
