How RTX Works
Images I took in the game using RTX (Ray Tracing Texel eXtreme) which is a peice of hardware which is intergrated into you GPU (Graphics Prossesing Unit) in you computer, its fairly expensive but gives the player a much more realistic experience while playing the game. Ray-Tracing essentially involves casting a bunch of rays from the camera, through the 2D image (your screen) and into the 3D scene that is to be rendered. As the rays propagate through the scene, they get reflected, pass through semi-transparent objects and are blocked by various objects thereby producing their respective reflections, refractions, and shadows. After this, they return to the light source with all that data and the scene is rendered.
