I got a 1080ti..
and I know it got some years on it, but I've never been unable to play any game that runs directx 12... until now. What is the reason for this?

Best graphics card ever made, GOAT!

Seems its expecting more vram then 8 for dx12. I was able to force it but of the three checks vram was the one that failed reading 0 so either its bugged or they expect something higher even though it should run dx12.

1080ti it's the ultimate GOAT. And indeed is even better than 2060s/2070s. And even compared to 3070, it's like 10 frame difference.

Well it has 11gigs of VRAM so I dont really see the problem, never had an issue with any other DX12 game. I'm just wondering why i'm being locked out from the DX12 version when no other game does that.

Without a doubt the best graphicscard I ever owned, still playing AAA-titles at ultra, thats the reason I've waited for 5000 series to upgrade.

VRAM stores textures. It doesn't process them. Higher VRAM doesn't mean you should be able to run every game.

Besides, this game is quite CPU heavy as well. An 8 year old GPU isn't going to carry you in everything, especially MMOs where CPU is used to process other players.

I got a 5800X3D and got no problems running the game. I'm just wondering why I cant play the DX12 version when I can literally play any other DX12 game. Maybe I'm being unclear here... it wont launch saying my GPU does not support DX12 features. What features?

Tbh I would leave dx12 atm, I didn’t notice any performance boost and the far implementation is terrible, idk what version they are using but it doesn’t look right!

i only have a 3060 and I am playing the game on all high settings, highest resolution and I am getting 60+ fps average in town :)

sorry forgot to put my gpu but I run a gtx1080 so for me its at 8gigs but it was one of the 3 checks a popup showed when it got past the usual fallback warning given I was forcing it to only run dx12_1. I did get it to run eventually but it was at 1 fps so in the end dx11 is the only viable mode I can seem to run with out problems. I've also run other dx12 games with this same hardware at a playable fps but just seems they need to iron out dx12 more I guess.

Only mentioned the vram due to a warning that I got to pop up after forcing dx12 and getting past the usual fallback warning. it gave a pass to 2 out of three checks where vram was a fail but did not register the proper amount and had 0 where my rig has 8 with my gtx1080. Even though that warning hits it will go on to compile shaders that took much longer then usual in the end the game hit 1fps in the select menu so not playable with how they implemented things where other games using it run fine.
