Power VR and octane 4

I'm sorry but i don't understand if in octane 4 a normal GPU will have a different behaviour that permits faster ray tracing or we will have to buy some kind of Power VR device to enable the faster ray tracing?
I was thinking of buying a Pascal Titan X but now i don't know of what the new technology consists in and i am wondering if i should wait and buy a future device specialized in ray tracing like the one mentioned in your posts.
Please answer...

Best regards and sorry for my english if bad

atmos89,

I guess implementation of PowerVR, marketing, quality optimalisations, viable business models, and much more are going to take a few years before its ready. Maybe faster, but for the mean time you can definately grab a cuda card and enjoy Octane!

Best
