What driver are you using? my GT610 can't get DX12 and I read it's DX12 ready

353.62. "DX12 ready" means a lot of things. Your card will see some advantages from DX12, but not as much as newer cards. There are different levels of compatibility. Maxwell cards (and up) will have the most compatibility with DX12 features, while Fermi (which I believe your card is) will have the lowest. Kepler cards will range in between.

That should explain why your card maxes out at Feature Levels 11.0 and WDDM 1.3, while mine max out at FL 12.1 and WDDM 2.0.

Check out this article: http://www.extremetech.com/extreme/2...d-dont-deliver as it may explain it better than I can.

Thank you! your post and link were useful :)

I'm on a laptop with a GTX 765m and Dxdiag shows DX 12.

I have ATI Radeon R9 270 but still featured levels are 11.1 why is that?

Your card apparently only supports up to Feature Level 11.1. What's important, though, is that your card DOES support DX12, so you'll still see quite a bit of improvement in CPU-bound DX12 games.

On my system with a Geforce GTX 770 DX 12 is also active.

it shows me 11.2 too ,but dx12 games should work though certain newer feature won't work.

lol i will never be able to get d12, my laptop uses a intel graphics card xD time to upgrade to desktop!
