Do the RTX cards Ray Tracing help lower rendering time of Lighted Scenes in 3D Modeling Softwares?

Does the RTX's dedicated hardware Ray Tracing help lower rendering time on scenes that employ light in 3D Modeling Software or is it only meant for games?

If the software decides to support it, then it might help.

Only if whatever software you use specifically has an update that enables it to use the ray tracing features of the cards.

yes they will help. Nvidia already said so. But its up to applications to support the hardware. As always, better wait to see how well they actually perform.

it like cuda or physx, it would need software to support api, a lot of software probably will update since they are huge in computing market.

I am wondering if it was like physx if you could run a 2060 then use it to render out the raytracing while using something like 1080 ti to render the game similar to when people used dedicated lower end card for phsyx

I doubt 2060 will even have rt core, if it is not a reskin of 1060 or 70
