Directx 11 compatibility question

[MrsPersimone]

So, i need some help.
I installed Shadow of Mordor this morning (so pumped to play), and immediately got this error:

Installed video device does not support DirectX11 features.

I checked nVidia to make sure i'm up to date on my drivers....this is my diagnostic information:

is there a workaround I haven't found in my searches online, or do I just need a different graphics card?

I'm not 100% sure - I do not have this game, before buying another, it is better clarify in the game forum, and consult on Hardware&Software subforum about other parts, especially PSU

Your video card is not dx11 compatible and does nto meet the minimum video requirments as outlined on the store page.



The way you 'actually' check if your system is DX11 compatible
1) Launch DXDiag
2) Go to the "Display" tab
3) In win7 look at the "DDI Version" in win8 look at "DirectX version"
4) that shows you what DX version your actual video card is compatible with
