So to me watching that tech demo I see a lot of odd issues with the shadows acting weird, going blurry as the light sources bounce around.

Another question is what were they rendering on? I'll bet a case of beer it wasn't on a 9070 XT. So again why are gamers hell bent on having ray tracing when you can't run it on "average hardware"?

Sorry but I'm still saying that RT is not ready for gaming.

Am I crazy or were the shadows ghosting? It's crazy that people want ray tracing when it is such a performance hit for blurry visuals.

Hopefully they release it. I miss the old days of both companies releasing tech demos.
