This has been one of our favorite videos to make thus far. In this video, we covered the core steps of the video game graphics algorithm. We are debating making a 2nd video on some of the more advanced topics such as how shadows, reflections, and specular highlights (metal shininess) are calculated, as well as UVs, Normal Maps, Deferred Rendering, and other topics. However, 'part two' videos are tricky on YouTube because they rely on the viewer watching the first part, and there's always some level of attrition. So if you want a Part 2 / 2nd video on this topic, comment below on your interest.
Have you ever wondered how video game graphics have become incredibly realistic? How can GPUs and graphics cards render such incredibly detailed scenes? Well, in this video we're going to explore how just a bunch of data in your computer gets turned into realistic graphics. Additionally, we'll take a quick look into Ray Tracing, DLSS or Deep Learning Super Sampling, and many other complicated aspects of video game graphics.
We at Branch Education love to play video games, so this video has been one of our favorite ones to make thus far. It's kind of like getting to look under the hood of your childhood car. Also, it was surprising that practically all video games use similar basic steps to render each frame. Furthermore, as a fun fact, to create this video our team used 1x 3090ti, 3x 3090s, and the model that we tore down was a 3090.
There are just sooooo many topics in the realm of computer graphics that we couldn't cover. If you're interested in part 2 where we'll cover things like UVs, Normal Maps, Shadows, Reflections, Specular Reflections, and much more, tell us in the comments.

This video is truly a masterpiece!!! 😱😍 Clear and precise, yet incredibly detailed, even in the most in-depth aspects: that's what makes it so interesting! It managed to delve into the subject in a simple, step-by-step manner, thus making even non-experts understand highly complex technical concepts. The narration is calm, elegant, and engaging, never rushed or confusing. You guys have made the complicated simple, and even captivated the viewer! I subscribed immediately! Keep it up! Greetings from Italy! 😁💪🏻💥🇮🇹

I loved watching this video with my amazing boyfriend. He understands this stuff a lot more than I do, but I think I fall more and more in love with him whenever he has to explain the difference between a GPU and CPU to me for the umpteenth time. He’s so cool. Great video!

Instead of triangles what will happen if we use a spatial hash or a svdag for storing the world data then render it using ray marching full screen quad?
and add optimization like dda and emty air skip?
The quality of your videos are beyond anything we have come to expect from free Youtube content. It's far superior to mainstream videos on traditional platforms from much larger operations. Thank you Branch Education for gifting the world with your amazing talent!
@overit36Now this is called education
@IGNYX_EDITSexcellent explaination
@ytgamingzone6898amazing
@JesterXD76As a video game fan we just usually buy graphics cards or laptops with a lot of money, but we don't know about the complexity the detailing and complexity of these things! Kudos to everyone for giving happiness to us. Especially this channel deserves at least billion views and million subscribers. Well done... Keep your hard work continue
@kausarali3292W video
@Ram-xi6kzThis is epic
@CoreNexnice
@szatpubgThank you for giving all this information for free. Especially when you have put in this much effort in making it. Kudos to you guys. And please do make videos regarding those other topics. I have adhd and the level of visual immersion makes it possible for me to concentrate enough to make sense of it and understand such topics. Thanks again
@gyarivishnu5927Your mom has hundreds of thousands of triangles on her backside
@Rootsnanny_really interesting thank you for making this video
