Nvidia's Neural Texture Compression can reduce the amount of VRAM required to render complex 3D graphics.

The technology is still in beta, but it could help address the VRAM limitations of modern GPUs.

Nvidia 's NTC Transcoded to BCn (block-compressed formats) reduced texture memory usage by 64% (from 272 MB to 98 MB) at 1440p with DLSS , while NTC inference on sample drastically cut it to 11.37 MB.
