&gt; Also would be nice to know how well they can actually compute shaders, do tessellation and many other things because this is one heck of a fluff piece and I can remember at least 1 of these past 20 years that proclaimed that real time RT in hardware is here.<p>The chip iterates on &quot;standard&quot; GPU designs made to performed rasterization, therefore it has everything in place to launch compute jobs or do tessellation. In addition, they have some additional hardware for raytracing. From one of the previous GDC presentations it was more or less clear that you could programmatically activate raytracing with a configurable number of rays and those rays will deliver additional lighting contributions to the objects of the scene.
