  Roughly* 50%: https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/t_original/k7a47ioqybpvm3knia2d.png https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/t_original...

    A) that's a marketing image. The green box is placed over a random portion of the die, not just the raytracing units. (They are distributed throughout the die, not shoved on one side). B) that said, looks more like 30% to me.

      Good point. Here's another marketing image that illustrates what you're saying: https://i.redd.it/gxmyxo2c5yf11.png https://i.redd.it/gxmyxo2c5yf11.png Just by looking at that you can intuitively see that the colored boxes in the previous image appear to be arbitrary. On the other hand, the previous image does seem to be trying to convey that a substantial portion of the die isn't shading units, even if the distribution is misrepresented. >B) that said, looks more like 30% to me. Was talking about RT and Tensor combined, not just RT.
