Update your Nvidia driver to latest version.
My advice is to download Geforce Experience.

Based on his graphics specs, his Dota 2 game should play in high settings and not lower it.

Vulkan dosent work on most of the Nvidias Mobile Graphic card like Mine which is gtx960m

[graystripe]

do not install both the DLC openGL and vulkan together.

don't ask me why but i suspect there is comflict between both.

you have to choose either the openGL DLC or vulkan DLC.

both are incompatible with each other.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Verify if Vulkan is Enabled

1. Run DOTA 2 then open the console and type “vulkan”. If vulkan commands starts to show up, it means that Vulkan is now enabled.

2. Press Alt + Tab. Go to “\Steam\steamapps\common\dota 2 beta\game\bin\win64 “. Run “vconsole2.exe”.

3. If you see “Vulkan Extension Enabled: VK_KHR_swapchain” , it means that Vulkan is enabled. The “shaders.cache” error line is expected on AMD cards.
