In short, ray tracing is a rendering technique that more closely imitates the behavior of light in the real world. This leads to more realistic images with better shadows and reflection. So I will show you how to turn RTX on while playing games.

Nvidia RTX is a reduced model of the ray-tracing theory which accounts for only the reflections and shadows for a fixed point, which is the viewer. It is not that perfect as that of the movies.
