NVIDIA has announced an update to the NvRTX branch of Epic's Unreal Engine 5. The major new feature is the addition of experimental support for ReSTIR Global Illumination, the ray tracing algorithm first discussed by NVIDIA researchers in the seminal paper Spatiotemporal Reservoir Resampling for Real-Time Ray Tracing with Dynamic Direct Lighting released at ACM SIGGRAPH 2020.
Gamers don’t need to spend more than $1,000 if they want to buy a new gaming PC because there are affordable options like the HP Victus 15L gaming desktop. From its original price of $1,400, you can get it for just $850 as HP has applied a $550 discount on this machine. However, you shouldn’t delay your purchase because there’s no assurance that the gaming PC will still be 39% off tomorrow. If you want to make sure that you get it for less than $1,000, you’re going to have to complete the transaction for it within the day.
GeForce Now is a great way to game on a handheld gaming PC, such as a Steam Deck. You can play games that aren't available on that Linux-powered handheld. For example, Destiny 2. And usually you'll save heaps of battery by streaming rather than playing locally. What's not been so great is trying to install GeForce Now as something akin to an easy-to-use app. It's traditionally required a good deal of tweaking, and I've long wished for a GeForce Now app on Steam Deck. Thankfully, Nvidia is now going to do the brunt of that fiddling with the settings for you.
NVIDIA announced that GeForce NOW has a new beta installation method that automatically configures GeForce NOW's browser in Steam Deck's Gaming Mode. The installation script automatically installs Google Chrome to the device, then adds all the settings needed to help members log into NVIDIA's cloud platform and stream their favorite games.
AMD seems to be making some big changes with its Ray Tracing Engine on its upcoming RDNA 4 GPU architecture.
Apart from gaming and AI, Hive Systems shows that complex passwords are no match for top GPUs such as the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
You’ll certainly get a much more powerful machine if you’re willing to spend more than $1,000 on gaming laptop deals, but it’s not a requirement if you just want to enjoy today’s most popular games. Here’s a device that’s relatively budget-friendly — the HP Omen 16, which is down to $850 from its original price of $1,300 following a $450 discount from HP. We’re not sure how much time is remaining for you to get the gaming laptop at 34% off though, so we recommend pushing through with the purchase immediately.
Amid the rumors surrounding Nintendo's upcoming Switch 2 console, sources stated that it will be deliberately underclocked in handheld mode to prolong battery life and could be more powerful than anticipated while in its TV dock. The same rumors also stated that the Switch 2 could output up to four teraflops of graphical power while docked, which is more than anticipated in previous rumors.
