Can you two pack it in please, this is getting tedious for the rest of us.

I see where your loyalties lie. A shame really but not unexpected. If you can’t see the facts as shown even by epic themselves, I can’t help you.
Daniel Wright, Technical Director of Graphics at Epic, said:
Lumen uses ray tracing to solve indirect lighting, but not triangle ray tracing. Lumen traces rays against a scene representation consisting of signed distance fields, voxels and height fields. As a result, it requires no special ray tracing hardware.
720p to 900p to 1080p was a big difference and was noticeable in games, particularly FPS... Come on, you're really scraping the barrel there.I don’t think resolution is be and end all, but around this time in 2013 Sony were claiming that higher resolution made you a better gamer. Let’s not forget that.
Any update on the rescheduling of the games reveal?

Let's not forget, that hardware based ray tracing (HWBRT) isn't an XB thing. PS5 also has HWBRT... When games are announced and shown on PS5, I'm sure they will also be confirmed to be using it Some titles and engines will go other ways.No it isn't - its a software based technique. But regardless it may be a way of improving lighting with GI without utilising a potentially more expensive hardware accelerated technique. A number of games announced for XSX have confirmed hardware based RT - The medium, Bright Memory:infinite - so we'll be able to compare - ultimately UE5 will support it too in the end for direct comparison.
Lumen GI Uses Software RT for Indirect Lighting Only; Nanite Exploits Primitive Shaders on PS5
Epic revealed that Unreal Engine 5's Lumen GI does use ray tracing, but for indirect lighting only and that can be done via software.wccftech.com

‘Dedicated‘ ray tracing hardware is the term you are looking for.In reality all raytracing is hardware based, it's done by the GPU with some help from the CPU.
I think there's a real misunderstanding of what "hardware accelerated" ray tracing is.
Wow it’s like PS4 Xbox one all over again.
it’s just this time the players have just picked up the opposite script now?
ZT banging on about how power doesn’t matter. How res isn’t noticed. How hardware advantage doesn’t matter. Trying to say software RT solutions are better than hardware.
Same on the other side - they’ve now take on the other arguments from 2013 that power is it.
It’s a role reversal. I do wonder that member realize their posts from PS4 xone release are still there.
Guess it’s just the way it rolls
I think he was just pointing out that the Tech Demo was not using HWBRT, don't think he ever said PS5 did not have HWBRT.
Can't believe all this arguing over a tech demo....a Tech Demo !
Sometimes I find it difficult to truly understand the point that is trying to be made... Probably just got lost in the processing of the recent tittle tattle.I'm not claiming it is - my point was merely that Ray Tracing is one area we might see graphical difference given its performance is tied to CU count. Its expensive so it will be interesting to see how it is handled this generation. It is the most obvious breakthrough but at a cost to performance.
no gran Turismo , no PS5 for me until it happens unless GTS is going to look a lot better than it does now ......
Well there were rumours of it being a launch game possibly. My brother in law is the same he love GT.
yeah , been rumours , I will be first in the queue if it is !!!
If they have Horizon Zero Dawn 2 and Gran Turismo as launch games, man that will drive sales like nothing else and I’d grab both!!...
I kind of get the feeling that GT? may well be a possibility due to less and less updates happening with GTS , also , there have been some very questionable decisions made over the penalty system in game , these have been changed quite quickly which suggests they may be testing things out with GTS , all guesses but seem to add up , maybe .........
