Hey there!

I am looking to get a laptop with the GTX 1050 Max-Q graphics card for Vulkan development.
The https://developer.nvidia.com/vulkan-driver page does not list this exact card, but it does list the GTX 1050 and GTX 1050 Ti.

Does this mean that I cannot use run Vulkan on the GTX 1050 Max-Q card?

Hello,

Vulkan is supported on the GTX 1050 Max-Q card. The products listed on that page are supported by the pre-release Beta vulkan drivers.

Our regular release drivers fully support Vulkan on all current hardware.

Best,
Tom
