While they already receive great performance in SOLIDWORKS Visualize, we wanted to squeeze every last bit of tech from these loaded NVIDIA Quadro RTX graphics cards. Many of our users are using NVIDIA RTX graphics cards today. Now that’s real-time raytracing!Īlso coming to SOLIDWORKS Visualize 2019 sp05 Noise-free!įigure 3 – NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 : 1 Render Pass at HD resolution Model courtesy of Bill Hamze, JL Audio, Inc.Ĭheck out this Real-time Turntable of the same storm trooper helmet, also with the AI Denoiser set to turn on at just one pass. Previously hardcoded to pass 10, you can now set this to anything you like, including just one pass! Combine this with setting the Interactivity Acceleration Mode to “Steady,” and you can truly experience real-time ray tracing!Ĭheck out the image of this storm trooper helmet after just a single rendering pass on an NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000. With such fast performance on NVIDIA Quadro RTX hardware, we’ve exposed the ability to specify at which render pass the AI denoiser will turn on in SOLIDWORKS Visualize 2020.
The following scenes render 30 percent faster with full RTX acceleration in Visualize 2020: Figure 1- NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 : HD-size : 1000 Passes : 60 seconds (~35% faster than 2019 sp04)įigure 2 – NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 : HD-size : 1000 Passes : 2 minutes (~30% faster than 2019 sp04) A 10-second long animation that took a full day to complete, will now finish in around half a day. While notable in its own right, it’s even more impressive when you consider a long animation, which consists of hundreds or thousands of images. To put this in perspective, an HD-sized image that took five minutes to render will now complete in 2-3 minutes. In our own performance benchmarks, we’ve seen an average of 30% speed improvements with Visualize 2020 over 2019 SP4 on the same RTX hardware! Some scenes show improvements of up to 50%! That’s a remarkable increase in render performance. Built on the NVIDIA Iray SDK, Visualize now leverages Tensor Cores and RT Cores within NVIDIA Quadro RTXGPUs to deliver the highest quality photo-realistic product images with near real-time ray tracing and AI denoising. SOLIDWORKS Visualize 2020 SP0 is the first publicly available production release of SOLIDWORKS Visualize to take full advantage of NVIDIA RTX technology.
