HDAO, also known as High Definition Ambient Occlusion, is a technique used by AMD graphics cards to rival NVIDIA’s HBAO. The single distinction is that they’re created specifically for their respective manufacturers’ GPUs. There are scarcely any differences between HBAO and HDAO. VXAO VXAO, o...
Introduced by Nvidia in 2008, it expands upon screen space ambient occlusion by using an updated, more powerful algorithm to determine shade values. But this power comes at a cost. HBAO is more intensive than SSAO and is restricted to Nvidia-based graphics cards. Is it possible to attain ...
In a world full of monsters, you’ll need the power and performance of GeForce RTX as you embark on an action-packed journey to help rid Paris of its Nazi problem. Tech inside: real-time ray-traced reflections and ambient occlusion, NVIDIA DLSS, and NVIDIA Adaptive Shading. ...
Until the introduction ofNVIDIA RTX technology, ray tracing was too costly to use when computing shadows. Ray tracing is a method of rendering in graphics that simulates the physical behavior of light. Tracing the rays from a surface on the screen to a light allows for the computation of sha...
Over the years we’ve introduced texture maps, transparency, lighting, fog, shadows, specular effects, bump mapping, god rays, subsurface scattering, refraction, ambient occlusion, depth of field, motion blur, and dozens of other things. OpenGL grew in complexity as we came up with newer, ...
So far, the best ones I've come across are just NVIDIA's Performance Guides and GamersNexus. For any title that has ray tracing effects, I look for performance reviews that specifically analyze those features individually. Sometimes some of the RT effects (like ambient occlusion ...

Ray tracing support can still be polarizing if a game implements the feature separately or differently for Nvidia and AMD graphics cards, but the more modern approach is to take advantage of DXR, which works on current AMD, Nvidia, and Intel GPUs. ...
The most obvious ones are lighting and shadows, but also included are physics, as well as some types of anti-aliasing and ambient occlusion. CUDA Cores vs Stream Processors Whereas Nvidia has CUDA cores, its primary competitor, AMD, has Stream Processors. Now, these two technologies, as well...
I don't think I can go AMD next. I know Nvidia will get their act together designing a gpu optimized for DX12 so I'm still awaiting next gpu's. Also HBM is the reason for waiting as this is a major change in the Graphics hardware industry so I think it will be worth the wait...
