NVIDIA showcases Neural Texture Compression at GTC 2026, cutting VRAM usage by up to 85% with real-time AI reconstruction.

NVIDIA researchers have proposed a neural compression method for material textures that enables random-access lookups and ...

VRAM has been quite a contentious issue among PC enthusiasts in recent times. In the early 2010s, the amount of VRAM you'd find on your average consumer-grade graphics card was rapidly increasing with ...

Realistic graphics with high-quality textures can consume significant amounts of graphics memory. While having a powerful graphics card is one solution, optimization is also a way to reduce VRAM ...

TL;DR: NVIDIA's Neural Texture Compression (NTC) combined with Microsoft's DirectX Raytracing 1.2 significantly reduces VRAM usage by up to 90%, improving game performance and lowering hardware costs.

The new NVIDIA Neural Texture Compression (NTC) technique is said to drastically reduce VRAM usage which can be good for gaming with lower amount of VRAM.

NVIDIA has shared additional information on its Neural Texture Compression technology, a rendering method designed to reduce ...

There’s no such thing as too much RAM—ask anyone who’s trying to find a good deal on an Nvidia graphics card. But you might not need to drop a month’s rent on a new GPU to free up some VRAM! Just wait ...

Before Optimization, much of the AMD GPU's 8GB VRAM is pulled from Cyberpunk 2077 (GameThread) for other applications.
