Overdraw optimization In cases where the GPU is pixel-bound, a common cause is overdraw, where pixels are shaded multiple times in a frame. This increases the likelihood of multiple passes being applied to the same pixel, taxing the GPU even more. In some cases, Solid Angle Culling reduced ARTAS processing time by 60%.

NVIDIA DLSS Plugin for UE4 DLSS is a deep learning super resolution network that boosts frame rates by rendering fewer pixels and then using AI to construct sharp, higher resolution images. DLSS pairs perfectly with computationally intensive rendering algorithms such as real-time ray tracing. Updates to NVIDIA RTX UE 4.25

For example, a shader can use warp shuffle instructions to exchange data between threads in a warp without going through shared memory, which is especially valuable in pixel shaders where there is no shared memory. For example, warp shuffle can be used to optimize memory access in algorithms like light culling. x, u1 mov r3.yz,

(Example: Soft light from a computer screen) There are two main methods to calculate lighting quality: Ray Tracing. Faster but less realistic, it determines colors based on how much of each pixel is covered by light. Optimize your lighting by using techniques like Levels of Detail (LODs) and culling. Rasterization.
