If you were hoping to play Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart on PC and you have an AMD graphics card, you might feel a little disappointed. It appears that ray tracing will be disabled upon launch, but only on AMD GPUs. Why is ray tracing disabled for AMD cards, and when will it become available? Everything is a little vague right now, but here’s what we know. The information comes straight from the source. Insomniac Games, the studio behind Ratchet & Clank, talks about various system requirements in this article,…

In rock star portraiture, it behooves a writer to avoid straightforward presentation of cliche. The story of a troubled virtuoso tormented by their own genius, turning to drink and drugs, then flaming out before their time has been told over and over again. And so in the making of Have You Got It Yet?, his new documentary about the Pink Floyd cofounder Syd Barrett, director Roddy Bogawa faced the peculiar task of fighting the ready-made drama of a man whose life story sounds like legend.Barrett led the group as guitarist…

Using the ALMA, astronomers have observed star birth and potential death sites in a galaxy 13.2 billion light-years away. Their observations revealed an ionization process by newly formed stars and a massive cavity that might represent a “superbubble” from supernova explosions, marking the most distant such structures observed.Scientists using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (<span class="glossaryLink" aria-describedby="tt" data-cmtooltip="<div…

Scientists at Tohoku University discovered that boric acid catalyzes the formation of lengthy peptides under neutral and acidic conditions, countering previous theories that alkaline conditions were ideal. The discovery of abundant boron-containing minerals in ancient earth rocks further supports the potential of boron-rich, neutral environments for protein synthesis on prebiotic Earth.Unraveling the mystery of how catalytic organic polymers first appeared on prebiotic Earth will unlock key understandings in the origin of…

Time to return to Return to Castle Wolfenstein It’s not uncommon for older games to be given a modern facelift. Case in point: the original Half-Life recently got a ray tracing mod, and the new lighting makes the aged FPS look pretty spiffing. Now it’s Return to Castle Wolfenstein‘s time to shine, thanks to an upcoming modification for the 22-year-old title. As spotted by DSO Gaming, graphics engineer and Twitter user Dihara Wijetunga is currently working on a project that will see the lighting for the 2001 Wolfenstein…

Blockchain is frequently derided as a solution in search of a problem. But buried beneath the crypto scams and Web3 utopianism hide some intriguing use cases. Some of the most powerful applications are in traceability. When embedded in supply chains, blockchain can track the entire product lifecycle, from origin to consumption. As the tech provides permanent, indelible, and unalterable records, extensive data about items and transactions can be securely stored and authenticated. In the food…

To say that I loved NVIDIA's RTX 3060 Ti is an understatement. It was the ideal balance of price and performance — something that became even more true when GPU prices fell back down to Earth. With NVIDIA's RTX 40-series cards skyrocketing to pricey new heights, I began to worry that the company was drifting away from affordable GPUs. Well, worry not. The $399 RTX 4060 Ti proves that NVIDIA can still deliver plenty of value under $500. To be clear, it's not the dramatic leap forward that the 3060 Ti was (and if you have…

Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 and GeForce RTX 4060 Ti were launched by the company on Thursday as the company's latest graphics cards built on the current-gen Ada Lovelace architecture. The more powerful GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is available in 8GB and 16GB memory configurations, while the RTX 4060 model is available with 8GB of memory. Both models support Nvidia's deep learning super sampling (DLSS) for over 300 games as well as upcoming titles such as The Lord of the Rings: Gollum and Diablo IV.The company says that the new …
