Well Nvidia just announced the new RTX series of cards and it seems like even the RTX 2070 that comes in at $499 takes a dump on the 1080ti.

I'm definitely looking to get one soon but can anyone at Reallusion give even the tiniest hint as to whether the real-time ray tracking will be taken advantage of in Iclone?
Will Iclone's global illumination benefit hugely from these cards? In short i'm really excited.

Reallusion probably won't have anything to say for a little while so it'll be interesting to see what the rest of you anticipate.

Yep , just saw it on the youtube channel. I will definitely buy the 2080 TI even if Reallusion doesn't go this way because I'm shure that
RTX (realtime raytrace) will be the near furutre of realtime. UDK and Unity will integrate it . Maybe the new EEVEE Blender will use it.

Next Game generation... Realtime game footage.




And this one is render with the Quadro RTX 8000 ( 10 000$ !!)

GeForce RTX

My YouTube channel.

Money money money & a lot of money , what I saw ... damn good & damn high price!

Compared to the 1080 cards on release there doesn't seem to be as big a price difference between the 2080- €900.00, and 2080Ti - €1,200.00 here (prices include 19% Sales Tax)


At the moment the 1080 is available for around €500.00 and the 1080TI for about €750.00.

Decisions, decisions, decisions.

System: Win 10 Pro (21H2), Asus X99-E WS, CPU i7-5930K -3,5 GHz, 32 GB DDR4 2666-16 RAM, NVidia GTX 1080 Ti GPU - 11 GB VRAM(Driver Studio-536.99), Samsung 850 Pro 512 GB SSD, 6 TB HD storage.

What is more important?

For me , speed of pipeline. Raytrace with global illumination is not only for realistic render but also
for realistic level construction. You d'ont have to fake with hundred of lights for realistic lighting/bounce.
Loooot of time consuming . The Tomb Raider demo is the best example of this. Every light is emited by the object itself,
no more light attache to them. The metro Exodus too is a good example , onle one sun light !!!
I saw lot of youtube video where Gamers guys doesn't understand the buzz about Nvidia raytrace versus the GTX series.
But as I said it's not only for consumers , it also for creators.

Yeah, the SHADOWS are awesome!

Now, about iClone's renderer and this card...

iClone 7... Character Creator... Substance Designer/Painter... Blender... Audacity...
Desktop (homebuilt) - Windows 10, Ryzen 9 3900x CPU, GTX 1080 GPU (8GB), 32GB RAM, Asus X570 Pro motherboard, 2TB SSD, terabytes of disk space, dual  monitors.
Laptop - Windows 10, MSI GS63VR STEALTH-252, 16GB RAM, GTX 1060 (6GB), 256GB SSD and 1TB HDD

If these RTX GPUs don't end up as part of the Bitcoin pipeline, we may well see some competitive prices a few months after their release. I can afford to wait and see.
Realtime rendering is the Grail.
