AMD Raytracing Allegedly Exclusive To High-End Navi 2X GPUs

Recommended Posts

The latest rumors on AMD's RDNA 2 GPU based Radeon RX Navi 2X graphics cards have leaked out which seem to indicate what to expect in terms of red team's ray tracing strategy to tackle the NVIDIA GeForce RTX lineup. According to PTT forums, it is reported that while AMD will releasing multiple RDNA 2 GPUs later this year, only flagship variants will feature support for ray tracing.

Had to cut the title short because someone at WCCF decided to make the title a paragraph.

Looks like they are taking a page out of Nvidia's book in keeping RT a premium exclusive. I am semi surprised, I thought AMD may have decided to appease the masses by making hardware accelerated RT available to the masses. Odd.

Well, the 2060 and 2070 have RT so I'd say nVidia aren't keeping it high-end only. But I suppose it depends how AMD prices it. If their high-end GPUs are priced the same as the 2070/2070 Super then I don't really see it as being a problem. It would be a problem if they're priced similarly to the 2080 Super/2080Ti.

That is true, I forget the 2060/2070 have it, just less tensor cores. Unless AMD pull out something fantastic out of the bag this round, I still see myself going the 3080Ti route.
