Glitchy visuals

[rrr]

Was testing out the game with various low-end system components and noticed that visuals are very glitchy when running a GTX 760. Tried various in-game settings with no change to the issue. Tested other games like DOTA 2 to see if similar visual glitches occur but everything works fine. Game works fine otherwise.
Posting this to be on the safe side because I wasn't sure whether this is intended (unsupported) or an issue worth reporting. (can't even figure out if this is a problem with the hardware itself)

Same thing happens to me, I have a gtx 660, I guess it is not compatible with old hardware.

Check drivers and if you are on DX11 or Vulkan (bottom left in video settings menu, then restart game); swap to the other from whichever you are on.

Dude, these are the most obvious solutions to problems. But none of this works, you know?

I changed it to vulkan when I got that error the first time, but it still didn't fix the problem.

Thanks for the helpful reply!

The issue shown in the image looks like almost textbook graphics corruption, which generally has one of three causes: A failing GPU, driver/system incompatibility, severely out of date/corrupt drivers, or the game just not being configured for older hardware.

The first is best demonstrated by running a google search for 'failing gpu symptoms'. The second can be seen on any modern windows machine by running any game from the late 90's to early 2000s, even with modern compatability mode older games often require patches to get graphics to display even remotely correctly.

Out of date drivers generally cause crashes, but for unsupported GPUs, DX12 is actually a fantastic example of this. Running a DX12 game on a dx11 gpu, if it doesn't crash, will result in messed up geometry or a severe amount of Z-fighting.

Finally, the last one (unsupported hardware) seems the most likely for this case. Research revealed that the GTX 700 series is pretty much the earliest NVIDIA GPU that supports Vulkan. Also, DX11 is being phased out for this game in favor of Vulkan.
