However, performance may be affected, requiring AI scaling solutions like Nvidia&#8217;s DLSS or AMD&#8217;s FSR to maintain playable frame rates.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Ray tracing is not just an aesthetic improvement. This technique allows for effects such as soft shadows, ambient occlusion, global illumination, and real-time reflections, transforming immersion in games. Through a complex algorithmic process, ray tracing provides more accurate images by simulating how light rays behave in a digital environment.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"500 RTX Games and Apps | RTX.
