Ahead of the Game Developers Conference next week, Nvidia shared more details on the power of its latest Nvidia GeForce RTX 50 Series graphics cards.

Jason Paul, vice president of the GeForce Platform Technology at Nvidia, said that demand is off the charts for the 50 series graphics processing units (GPUs). In the first five weeks of sales, the 50 Series shipped twice as many units as the first five weeks of the 40 Series years ago.

And players are using the cards the way they were meant to be, as 92% are turning on DLSS4 and 96% are using Reflex and 90% are using ray tracing.

Nvidia announced enhancements across its neural rendering and RTX technology suite, including that neural shaders are coming to Microsoft DirectX in April, and RTX Remix is officially releasing out of beta alongside a new playable Half-Life 2 RTX demo.

Nvidia also said RTX Kit is receiving major updates with Unreal Engine 5 support for RTX Mega Geometry and RTX Hair, and Nvidia ACE autonomous game characters are debuting in two titles.
