i was watching these new trailers of stalker (which you can grab here BTW) and after the tech-demo with those nice real-time shadows i was wondering how these are rendered. as far as i know real-time raytracing is way off, so how do game-engines render such scenes so fast?

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Doesn't require any special hardware either, all you need is OpenGL and there's a software opengl driver included in recent versions of windows.
