Kernel 3... The new architecture for vray gpu!!!

[luisgamino2]

Hi

I Saw on YouTube kernel 3 is going to be the new architecture for vray gpu...but i would like if the gpu developer can explain some advantages of kernel 3, what can we expect for this new architecture???, What kind of benefits can we see with kernel 3, when Will we have these new technology, what are the changes between kernel 2 and kernel 3... Are we going see better perfomance?? Less vram??? more stability??? better image Quality ??? Or more unsupported features???

I use vray gpu for sketchup and i hope You don't forget vray sketchup users as well...

And sorry to ask these, i know chaos group is very prívate with these topics, but at least give us a glimpse of these new architecture
Thanks in advance
Best regards

Hey luisgamino2

You can check the pros and cons of Kernel 3 over our current architecture in the following video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=375X...hannel=ChaosTV

Other than that, keep in mind that it is still under development - we will make sure to provide further information in the future. Thanks for the understanding and patience.

Hey Luis

Alexander Angelov, the team lead for Vray GPU talks about this in details here
So yeah, better performance, better memory efficiency and out of core textures. Kernel 3 is about adding new technologies to the GPU engine as he explains (so there won't be unsupported features I would say)

The entire video is very interesting honestly, I recommend watching the whole thing when you have time. Chaos Vantage relies 100% on ray tracing, and has its place in production as well

Best,

Muhammed
