These graphics cards support ray tracing

Nvidia graphics cards with ray tracing showcased

Since the launch of the RTX graphics cards (Turing), Nvidia has firmly integrated ray tracing into its product range. For this reason, there are numerous graphics cards that support this feature. We have put together an overview for you:

• RTX series: These include the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060, Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070, Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 and Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti. The SUPER variants are also included.
• Pascal GTX: The classic models that support ray tracing naturally include the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 with 6 GB VRAM, the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070, the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Ti, the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 and the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti.
• Turing-GTX: Naturally, the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 and Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti are among the graphics cards that support ray tracing. The GTX 1660 SUPER should not be overlooked here either.
• Titan: In the Titan range, the Nvidia Titan X, XP and V are supported.
• GeForce RTX 30 series: Nvidia has equipped all variants of the RTX 30 flagship range with ray tracing. These include the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070, 3080 and 3090.
• Note: On some Nvidia graphics cards, the ray tracing features are only enabled with the GeForce 425.31 driver. This affects the Titan Xp, Titan X (Pascal), GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, GeForce GTX 1660, GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, GeForce GTX 1080, GeForce GTX 1070 Ti, GeForce GTX 1070 and GeForce GTX 1060 6GB models.

Ray tracing: Supported AMD graphics cards

Whilst Nvidia has been equipping its graphics cards with ray tracing for some time now, AMD users will have to wait a little longer. No AMD GPUs supporting this technology have been released yet.

• Only the latest AMD graphics cards in the RX 6000 Series will support ray tracing. These include the AMD Radeon RX 6800, AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT and AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT.
• The RX 6800 series went on sale in November 2020, whilst the RX 6900 series was released in December 2020.
