Yes, I'm only talking about "non-hybrid" GI - I.e. what is needed to play a game looking the same in terms of detail, sharpness etc. as a rasterized game does today, at 4k/60 or 2k/144, but using path tracing.

Hybrid (shadows, reflections only) already works today and looks pretty impressive. But just a rough guestimate of how many more rays/pixel we need to play a AAA game with PT only? I'm thinking 1000 times.
