Intel TSNC Explained: Neural Texture Compression for All GPUs

Intel’s introduction of TSNC (Texture Set Neural Compression) marks a significant shift in how textures are stored and rendered in modern graphics pipelines. By moving away from fixed-format compression and embracing neural reconstruction, TSNC challenges existing approaches—most notably NVIDIA’s Neural Texture Compression (NTC).
