NVIDIA releases RTX Voice and here is how you can install it on almost all NVIDIA graphics cards

NVIDIA has released a brand new audio voice/microphone denoiser for its GPUs, called RTX Voice. And while NVIDIA has made this exclusive to its latest Turing GPUs, there is a workaround via which you can install it on almost all NVIDIA graphics cards.

All you have to do is download the application, locate and open the RTXVoice.nvi. Then, you’ll simply have to delete the following lines of code. After that, save the file. And that’s it. You will now be able to install, configure and use RTX Voice with all NVIDIA graphics cards.

“<constraints>
<property name=”Feature.RTXVoice” level=”silent” text=”${{InstallBlockedMessage}}”/>
</constraints>”

We seriously don’t know why NVIDIA has locked this feature. Okay okay, the green team is obviously trying to sell more Turing GPUs. However, RTX Voice appears to be working with well with Pascal GPUs too.

According to reports,  this workaround works on all 10 and 16 series GPUs. On the other hand, there are mixed reports regarding the 900 and 700 series GPUs.

From what we’ve seen so far, RTX Voice does an incredible job at reducing background noise. This feature does introduce a performance hit on modern games, however, it appears to be the best mic denoising solution out there.

  1. Performance penalty, that’s why, it is as simple as that. It is no mystery that the nvidia RTX api can work in a “software mode” relying on normal cuda cores but we also know it has a huge impact on performance. RTX voice already has about 10% impact on available horsepower on RTX cards so you can imagine how crippling it can be on GTX ones. Could they have released it anyway putting a big warning regarding performance? Sure and probably they even considered it since the hidden option but they evaluated it was not worth it, plus ofc the marketing side of things to push RTX cards.

  2. Please DSO, don’t copy/paste articles and try it before post here.

    Simply download NVIDIA_RTX_Voice_v0.5.12.6.exe and edit then the RTXVoice.nvi with Notepad. Yeah cool but where is the RTXVoice.nvi.

    Answer is: Extract the setup with an unpacker and then edit the RTXVoice.nvi in the NvAFX directory. Start setup.exe and profit.

    1. There is no need to extract it with an unpacker, just run it and get the error text that you can’t install it. Now the directory will be created for you in C:tempNVRTXVoice

      1. Sure but half-baked answer! What can be if you start then the NVIDIA_RTX_Voice_v0.5.12.6.exe again? The RTXVoice.nvi gets overwritten. With your method we need to start the C:TEMPNVRTXVoicesetup.exe after edit. Also we must know where the location is for the
        RTXVoice.nvi (“Search Everything” can help here a lot!).

  3. 1. There is big performance drop on Non-RTX cards
    2. This thing eats ~800MB which is really bad (RTX,Non RTX card)
    3. Invest time in free plugins or even paid ones that are not eating ~800MB RAM and not slowing your PC

    1. I mean is 800MB RAM really an issue in 2020? Especially if you have a PC that ‘should’ have an RTX card in it.

  4. It works on older Nvidia cards, noise cancelation is amazing, but the real cool feature is that it works for other people in your voice chat too.

    But problem is simple with older (900 series) GPU’s – huge perfomance penalty. Sound becomes distorted/robotic, if you try to use RTX Voice and play some demanding game simultaneously.

  5. Gave it a try albeit in a pretty silent environment It worked. Till it stopped working.then I switched back to the SB Evo device.
