Been having a nightmare setting up Unreal materials. So the card may support SM6.5 but having just updated the driver to: 512.59-desktop-win10-win11-64bit-international-dch-whql (05-05-2022) DXDiag is still reporting Feature Level 12_1 as latest evolution, whereas SM6 equates to the “Feature level” defined by the capabilities of DirectX 12 hardware feature level 12_2.
your driver then is up to date, Windows Device Manager is reporting the Driver Version as 30.0.15.1259 - where is the descrepancy and how do I get to leverage SM6?
I am sorry to hear our GPU causing you nightmares.
Could you please share where you saw information with regards to the feature level of the GTX1660 GPU? Because I am afraid that your dxdiag output is correct and the max feature level on this particular GPU is 12_1 only. The “full” feature Turing GPUs of RTX20xx series and of course RTX30xx series do support 12_2.
If this information is found on one of our Web pages I will make sure to get that amended and I apologize for the misinformation.
I have the same issue where I am getting an error that I don’t have DirectX-12 with SM6.
I am using the latest 528.02
My card is a 2070 RTX
I am getting the following message:
Specifically the issue shows up when attempting to launch projects that use Unreal Engine 5.1 (such as the Valley of the Ancient tech demo) DxDiag.txt (170.9 KB)
Unfortunately this is dependent on the Microsoft DX12 installation as part of the OS, so we don’t have a package available.
And as far as I am aware this version of DX12 is only available in non-Server installations. But that is something you might want to ask from Microsoft directly.
Hi there @Osinted, welcome to the NVIDIA developer forums.
I suggest you start a new topic with your question including a bit more detail, since as far as the OP goes this has been resolved with the finding that Windows Server does not support DX12 Ultimate.
