The improvement often occurs because Mega Geometry can use up to 300MB less VRAM than older ray tracing APIs.
The technology increases efficiency by changing how rays interact with triangles.
Thus, ray tracing looks better when applied to swaying vegetation, tessellated surfaces, or other moving objects.
Intel and AMD will likely introduce similar functionality.
Alan Wake 2 received Mega Geometry in version 1.2.8.
This update also introduced DLSS 4 multi-frame generation and the new AI transformer model thatreducesvisual artifacts.
Mega Geometry kicks in automatically after installing driver version 572.16.
The update also includes a new “Ultra” setting for ray-traced reflections.
The above video demonstrates how the game now renders reflections within reflections.
