[SOLVED] GT 730 does it have DirectX12 (11_0)??

[Sm0]

My friend has the following error when he tries to play Dead by Daylight and other games
https://ibb.co/ryPJcCd

I checked the GPU and supports DirectX12 but it has feature level 11_0

specs:
Palit GT 730 2GB gddr3

you can always force it to play as DX12
See link
thats for DBD anyway, I assume every game is different in that concern

Because DirectX does is not a driver....
Because they are entirely different types of DX. DirectX is not forward or backward compatible.


- Win10 has a number of DX9,10,11 and currently, two DX12 files (with 64bit Win10).
( btw- Win7 has DX9,10 & 11 )
Windows does not select which version of DX or which DX file a game or software uses.
The game or software selects the files it requires.


- There are a number of reasons why a software or game may not run because of DirextX.

The main reasons are...
1) The required file is either not installed, or is corrupt.
- If you have never updated DX first try updating DX with the DirectX Web Installer
Download DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer from Official Microsoft Download Center

- In the event that DX is up to date, and there is a corrupt DX file you need to reinstall DX using the
DirextX Redist (June 2010) installer package.
Download Details - Microsoft Download Center - DirectX Redist (June 2010)

2) The graphics processor is not capable of using that version of DirectX.

Were you able to play Assassins Creed (which one ? ) on the same machine with Win7 ?
If so, your graphics processor should not be the problem.

"When I check my DirectX version it says "DirectX 12"

Yes, the main dxdiag page may show DirecX 12, but this is the highest level of DX that Win10 is capable of using
(For Win7 this was DX11 - Vista, DX10 and XP, DX9 ).
What is shown in the Display Tab > Feature Levels ? This is what your graphics processor is capable of using.


- Some games may show a DX error when a graphics processor is capable of using DX11 but is not capable of


running the game ( often when using integrated graphics ).


- What brand and model graphics processor does your machine have ?
