Nvidia Quadro RTX is based on Nvidia’s new Turing architecture, which has been designed from the ground up for ray tracing and deep learning, a subset of Artificial Intelligence (AI). And these applications simply aren’t commercially available yet.īut before we get ahead of ourselves, it’s worth taking a step back to look at what makes Quadro RTX different to all GPUs that have come before.

Quadro RTX might finally be shipping but as it is a completely new type of GPU technology, it also needs special software to take full advantage of its ray trace rendering capabilities.

Nvidia had shown it could make photorealistic visualisation completely interactive and while there was almost certainly some smoke and mirrors, it was a massive advancement.įast forward six months and design viz artists can now start to see what all the fuss was about… well, kind of. Producing a single ray traced quality photoreal image used to take seconds or even minutes, but this was now being done in a fraction of a second on a desktop workstation, albeit one with two very powerful GPUs.
