Today, we're benchmarking and analyzing one of Nvidia's most interesting new technologies in development: RTX Neural Texture Compression (NTC), an AI-driven technology that uses Tensor Cores to ...

If you read this site, chances are pretty good that you've probably played around with a neural image upscaler at some point. These programs, like the popular "waifu2x", use a pre-trained neural ...

It's still early, but 2023 looks like it'll be remembered as the year 8GB of GPU memory met a premature demise. Just last year, 8GB was fine for most games. But even now, we've already seen multiple ...

PCWorld reports that neural texture compression from Intel, Nvidia, and AMD could drastically reduce game file sizes and VRAM usage for PC gamers. Intel’s TSNC technology compresses textures up to 17X ...

NVIDIA has shown off its Neutral Texture Compression (NTC) technology before, but it is still a work in progress. The technology and its efficiency benefits have since been more clearly detailed and ...

In context: Modern game engines can put severe strain on today's hardware. However, Nvidia's business decisions have left many GPUs with less VRAM than they should. Fortunately, improved texture ...

Something to look forward to: High-resolution textures are a primary factor behind the growing install sizes and VRAM usage in modern blockbuster games. Nvidia proposed a neural-network-based method ...

TL;DR: Intel's Texture Set Neural Compression uses AI to drastically reduce texture memory and storage needs by up to 18 times with minimal visual quality loss. Available later this year as an SDK, it ...

Now more than ever, the best graphics cards aren’t defined by their raw performance alone — they’re defined by their features. Nvidia has set the stage with DLSS, which now encompasses upscaling, ...

Use left and right arrow keys to seek audio. At Siggraph 2023, NVIDIA announced its new AI-powered Neural Texture Compression (NTC) to reduce texture sizes without sacrificing detail. This would mean ...
