Quick RT question

Rdpruitt

So, I've been seeing things everywhere about the 'raytraced Minecraft'. And everyone arguing that it's path tracing, not RTX.

 

Even though it isn't part of the official RTX brand, would these path tracing games/shaders utilise the RT cores in a RTX card?

That minecraft shader doesn't utilize the RT cores.

I only see your reply if you @ me.

I believe in order for it to use the RT cores, the game will need to have DXR support, which is the official name for Ray Tracing. Without it, its not really Nvidia Ray Tracing and will not use the RT cores built into the RTX cards.
