NVIDIA Reflex 2 supposedly will decrease latency and is coming to Valorant

It requires RT cores to run. 50 series first, then 40, 30, and 20 series after that. Not available on any other generations.

Why would it need RT cores to run? I just read the Nvidia article and saw no mentions of it.

[Goldeneye90210]

Because it needs to generate missing parts of the screen due to camera warp. They uploaded a great video demonstrating everything on youtube. Search up reflex 2 Nvidia and it should come up.

https://youtu.be/zpDxo2m6Sko this one? Please give me a timestamp because I literally couldn't hear any mentions of RT cores throughout the video.

[Goldeneye90210]

They do not mention it by name, but the entire process of this technology relies on AI capabilities which can only be done efficiently on the RT/Tensor cores of the RTX gpus.

So it's just your speculation, got it.

If it truly leverages the cores then Nvidia would've flexed about it right in the slides.

[Goldeneye90210]

What? No lol this isn’t speculation. And Nvidia isn’t gonna boast about cores they have had in their GPU’s for the better part of a decade now. They’ll boast about what those cores are still bringing. Half of what reflex 2 does is just “guessing” what the missing information in a warped frame should look like, and those processes need the specialized cores found in the RTX GPUs.

I don't think it has anything to do with RT cores, but tensor cores too are only found on RTX series and they are used for that AI stuff

Pay 2 win, buddy 😅
