To the institutions and corporations, consoles are king. High performance Ray tracing is coming to the new consoles through whatever black magic or encoding changes they need to make. And that means it's coming to AMD because the consoles are 100 percent AMD PC hardware.
In fact it's already here with unreal engine 5, it just needs to be further implemented and almost ever game studio is adopting it.

This week actually makes it widespread for devs and it being a feature of unreal engine 5 means it will be easier to implement for all games
These guys have a great long-term relative performance benchmark: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-s...0-ti.c2877 [techpowerup.com] The RX 6950 XT is about 99% better here vs. userbenchmark's 62% "effective speed" difference.

This is a good thing. Brute forcing an additional effect into the game that is not built into the game engine through additional specialized hardware isn't really good optimization and that's why it hurts performance so bad, even on Nvidia cards.
We were never going to get next level hardware based ray tracing as an add on effect without 800w cards, or some kind of standard where a game required a minimum number of ray tracing processors and was coded to use them..... But that would also be "software" based, just a different implementation and would make the game unplayable on the majority of older cards.
So software based really only means that the effect is natively coded, optimized and implemented into the game engine and can be processed by the hardware in a traditional method, like anti aliasing or anything else of that nature.
It will just be a setting like that, weaker cards will still have to turn it to low or off if they don't have the hardware power to handle it, much like many other eye candy effects.
Hopefully we get something similar added to dx12 or dx13 and Nvidia can come up with some other cool hardware based lighting or physics effects or performance boosting effect to make use of those specialized cores.
I always go Intel/Nvidia stuff but get AMD stuff for the rest of my family and we all are PC gamers, we have a few different desktops and laptops but only mine are Intel/Nvidia, they are really starting to get competitive, I really like some of the features and customization options in the AMD adrenaline driver suite.

I know there's EZBench which is Unreal 5, and Nvidia GPUs absolutely dominates AMD cards in that benchmark due to the ray tracing performance difference.

I think Fornite is on Unreal 5 now too, but I can't find any comparison benchmark
