Lightroom Classic 15.0.1 cannot use all GPU acceleration options simultaneously with new NVIDIA RTX
Hello, I am experiencing an issue where Lightroom Classic version 15.0.1 cannot utilize all graphics processor options ("Use GPU for display", "Use GPU for image processing", "Use GPU for Export") concurrently. When one option is selected, the others become grayed out (mutually exclusive), preventing full GPU acceleration despite the GPU being recognized in the system info.
My system information is as follows:
System Configuration:
- Lightroom Classic Version: 15.0.1 [ 202511041508-dddee541 ]
- Operating System: Windows 11 - Business Edition (Version: 11.0.26200)
- Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080
- Driver Version: 32.0.15.9144
- Installed Memory (VRAM): 15.5 GB
- CPU: 3.6GHz (24 cores)
- Built-in memory: 64 GB RAM
Observed Behavior in Preferences > Performance:
When "Use GPU for Export" is checked, "Use GPU for display" and "Use GPU for image processing" are disabled (grayed out). This forced exclusivity prevents "Full graphics acceleration" from working as expected across all modules.
Relevant System Info Snippet:
Graphics Processor Info:
DirectX: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 (32.0.15.9144)
Init State: GPU for Export supported by default
User Preference: GPU for Export enabled
GPUDeviceEnabled: false
OGLEnabled: true
GL_RENDERER: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080/PCIe/SSE2
Direct2DEnabled: false The Direct2DEnabled: false status seems to be the core cause of the general acceleration issues, despite the latest drivers and software being installed. I have attempted manual configuration file overrides without success.
Has anyone seen this issue? Thank you!
