Intel has been releasing more details about its Texture Set Neural Compression (TSNC), which uses AI to shrink texture data at install time or during runtime. If it does what it says on the tin, it ...

TL;DR: Texture compression has been crucial in gaming, especially with 4K resolution demands. In 2025, AI-powered methods will enhance performance by reducing texture sizes without quality loss.

Nvidia and Intel have showcased advanced AI-powered texture compression technologies that can dramatically reduce VRAM usage while preserving visual quality. Nvidia's updated Neural Texture ...

Intel and Nvidia showed off their respective AI-powered texture-compression technologies over the weekend, demonstrating impressive reductions in VRAM use while maintaining texture quality, or even ...

One concern following NVIDIA's introduction of its ultra-efficient Neural Texture Compression (NTC) was that it would remain proprietary to only NVIDIA's GPUs. Intel has since introduced its own ...

PC gamers face an ongoing problem: more powerful games demand more powerful resources, all in the service of games that deliver more realistic experiences and graphics. But can gamers avoid paying out ...

Forward-looking: Intel is pitching a new way to pack game textures that leans heavily on neural networks but still nods to traditional block compression. The company's Texture Set Neural Compression, ...

In context: Modern game engines can put severe strain on today's hardware. However, Nvidia's business decisions have left many GPUs with less VRAM than they should. Fortunately, improved texture ...

TL;DR: NVIDIA's RTX Neural Texture Compression, enabled by DirectX 12's Cooperative Vectors, reduces VRAM usage up to 7X while enhancing texture quality for 4K gaming. This AI-driven technology ...
