Ray tracing technology in graphics cards simulates how light interacts with objects, producing more realistic reflections, shadows, and illumination. Once limited to professional rendering, it is now available in consumer graphics cards for gaming and other visual applications.
This advancement improves image quality but also demands substantial processing power. Modern graphics cards therefore combine dedicated ray-tracing hardware with techniques such as artificial intelligence upscaling to balance visual realism, performance, and energy efficiency.
