Subject: GPU not supported in Lightroom Classic – NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti

Dear Adobe team,

I recently upgraded to a high-end workstation running Windows 11 (Business Edition, fully updated) with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB, and noticed that Lightroom Classic 14.4 (build 202506051112) does not recognize or enable GPU acceleration.

The app displays the message “GPU not supported”, and disables all GPU-related enhancements, even though:

  • The GPU is fully recognized by OpenGL (GL_RENDERER: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti / OpenGL 4.6.0 NVIDIA 576.80).

  • Photoshop CC 2025 detects and uses this GPU with no issue.

  • The driver is up to date (version 576.80).

  • I have tested multiple settings (auto / custom GPU selection, performance modes).

This seems to be a listing issue, i.e. the RTX 5070 Ti is not yet whitelisted as a supported GPU in Lightroom Classic, despite offering full OpenGL and GPU compute support.

Please consider adding official support for the NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti in an upcoming update of Lightroom Classic.

Let me know if you need logs or diagnostic reports (config.lua, agprefs, etc.).

Best regards,

    this would be great if CR 18.6 didnt keep telling me “camera raw graphics acceleration is not supported by your system”  I have an Nvida RTX 5080, and this happened with CR 18.5 and now 18.6, what is the fix????

    You would get better results if you posted as a separate thread rather than attaching your complaint to an announcement post. 

    Were I you, I would start here. https://community.adobe.com/questions%2D675/subject%2Dgpu%2Dnot%2Dsupported%2Din%2Dlightroom%2Dclassic%2Dnvidia%2Drtx%2D5070%2Dti%2D982656?postid=4035959#post4035959

    How frustrating. If you don’t look at the feedback, will people come here and leave replies like that?
    Same to me. I think you guys don’t check feedback enough

    LR and Camera Raw don't whitelist supported GPUs.  Try these troubleshooting steps:

     

    1. Delete the Camera Raw GPU Config.txt file, following steps 2 - 5 of this article:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/kb/troubleshoot-gpu.html#solution-4

    2. Delete any TempDisableGPU2 or TempDisableGPU3 files. Read the instrructions carefully about the Lightroom Classic subfolder:

    3. If these steps don't help, do the LR menu command Help > System Info and copy/paste the entire contents here so we can see exactly which versions of hardware and software LR thinks you're running and important LR options that are set.

    Did any of this work for you as I have a similar issue with the same card
