When I launch Marvel Rivals on Steam, a message pops up as below

"DirectX 12 is not supported on your system

Please update your Windows 10 64-bit operating system (version 1909 or later) and upgrade your graphics card driver.

Ensure that your graphics card meets the minimum requirements (NVIDIA GTX 1060 or AMD RX 580)."

Here's my current system.

  • Win 10 version 2004
  • Graphic GTX 1660S

Please help me check this issue.

    My laptop needs custom drivers and can’t update. Is there anything I can do to run the game?

    Have you installed the most recent Nvidia drivers ?

    Cpu and system RAM quantity also meet the games minimum requirements ?

    Same for me, have Windows 11 and GTX 1660 and it doesn't work. Did you manage to get yours running?

    Unfortunately, your machine is well below spec. The minimum graphics processor is Nvidia GTX1060 \ AMD FX580.

    Your total system RAM is not even close to the minimum of 12GB, and the game also specifies 3GB VRAM, which is

    found only on dedicated graphics cards.

    Intel and AMD integrated graphics have no VRAM and rely on using system RAM. It is questionable if even the current

    Intel IrisXE integrated gpu is capable of running this game, It's processing capabilities are not close to the GTX 1060

    (bottom of Nvidias gaming card performance for the GTX1000 series), but I have seen a post on another Marvel Rivals thread from

    someone who reckons he was able to run the game with Intel graphics (didn't say if game play was at playable frame rates though).
