Will newton require a GPU with RT core #150
-
|
Previously, some NVIDIA simulation frameworks, i.e., Isaac Sim [source], required GPUs with RT cores. As far as I know, warp and MuJoCo do not, meaning they work with other NVIDIA GPUs, i.e., A100/H100 models. Can you already say if this is going to be the case for Newton, too? Knowing this early would help us in a) making the right decisions when buying new hardware and b) identifying projects that can or cannot be migrated to Newton in the future (as some projects are required to run on GPU clusters with A/H-type GPUs). |

RT cores would only be required for workloads that include sensor rendering. This is actually true right now for Isaac Lab as well if you are training physics-only policies. Even rendering is possible on X100 class GPUs with the latest OSS release of Isaac Sim 5.0, but it will be slower than on an RT enabled machine, and it is not officially supported. |
