Nvidia comes up with new algorithm for texture compression

Better than traditional systems or AVIF and JPEG-XL

The GPU maker named after a Roman vengeance daemon, Nvidia has published a paper which details a new algorithm for texture compression which could reduce system requirements for future AAA titles.

The paper claims the new algorithm for texture compression is supposedly better than traditional block compression (BC) methods and other advanced compression techniques such as AVIF and JPEG-XL.
