This is part 2 of our RTX 4060Ti review where we look at the RTX 4060Ti’s Ray Tracing performance. To see part 1, CLICK HERE.
Ray Tracing
Ray tracing has become an important performance metric over the last five years as it slowly supplants older reflection and ambient occlusion technology. Unfortunately, it still carries a hefty performance penalty. Using upscaling technology such as DLSS, FSR, and XESS does help mitigate some of the performance loss, but they aren’t magical fixes to the issue.
Ray tracing is also done in two methods currently. There is the hybrid...
