Hopefully, the addition will help the Adreno GPU play nicer with more demanding games.

      Great to see raytracing is becoming more accessible

      What is more accessible about a vendor with fully open drivers losing engineers to one with closed source implementations?

              They‘re mostly higher end than Snapdragon SoCs

              Raytracing isn’t for low-end Snapdragon SoCs. Zen2-based SoCs aren’t that expensive.

                Zen3+ based SoCs (Ryzen 6000) are not. And those are the ones you’d need to have Navi II iGPUs and thus Raytracing.
