Windows 10 and GTX 980 - Still no DX12

[Lolucoca]

Just installed Windows 10 and all necessary drivers and my GTX 980 still dowsn't run DX12... why? whyyyyy?

Weird, DxDiag show DX12 12 but GPU-Z shows 11.2 i can confirm this is GPU-Z.

GPU-Z might need to be updated to properly detect the DirectX version, so I'm unsure if that reading means anything. Type dxdiag.exe in the search bar and read what version number it reports. Mine says 12.

 

Note that we need DirectX 12 games to be released before we can actually start using DirectX 12 functionality.

Heyyo,

There's barely any DirectX 12 content...

So far? That's it. That? And 3DMark's API Overhead test which only measures draw calls per second and not an actual 3D benchmark.

Also, do you have Windows 10 version of your driver installed? Your upgrade might be running earlier version of Windows driver which lacks WDDM 2.0 support which is needed for DirectX 12...

That driver. Use Display Driver Uninstaller to nuke your current driver before installing the new one.

• Download the program, extract it and restart in Safe Mode (When you run RRU it will ask you to restart in safe mode, say yes)
• Run DDU, Select "Clean & Restart"
• Once back in regular boot? it'll detect and install basic display drivers (DON'T select "Clean Install" under the custom settings, it sometimes has problems with SLI setups). Once that's done? Install the latest NVIDIA drivers for your GPU and then reboot
• (Optional) Open up DDU (if it asks to reboot into safe mode? you don't need to, so say no) and then click on "Set Automatic Driver Installation to Default"

You are not the only one are having this glitch, I do as well on GTX 970.

Got the Win10 verion of my nVidia driver, so... I hope that GPU-Z will show it to me someday

Maybe you have a bit too many anti-virus/adware scanners m8? Pretty sure all those CPU interupts and disktime hurt your performance...

 

Btw, ontopic, mine also says 11.2. Whilst nvidia control panel says 12.1 (GTX 960).

Almost the same for me. 11.2 vs. 12.0, 980.

Actually, Emsisoft Internet Security is the only security software that i use as a real time protection, other stuff after Emsisoft Internet Security are consider to be on demand scanning tools.
