Hi @Jack29722689wnws on the contrary your GTX 660 does not support DirectX 12 feature level 12.

"Even though it supports DirectX 12, the feature level is only 11_0, which can be problematic with newer DirectX 12 titles"

Generally, support for a certain DX version is not the same as feature level.

DirectX 12 support means it supports the DirectX 12 APIs (application programming interfaces). So it speaks the correct language.

The feature level, however, specifies the actual capabilities of the card, the functions it's able to perform.

So a card can "support" DirectX 12, but only have feature level 11.1. And that's not sufficient for Photoshop.

Yes, it's a bit of misleading marketing. The manufacturers try to stretch things as far as they will go.
