  1. Fortnite DirectX 12 Not Working?


    My Setup: NVIDIA RTX 4070TI Super 16GBI7-2600K 4.40GhzDDR3 16GB 1886MhzSystem OS on SSDWindows 10 ProI boot up fortnite into D3D11 and I enable DirectX 12 in-game to be able to try out Raytracing and such... but then it says reboot and I reboot.Now the game doesn't boot at all, only fix is to manage game launch mode and force D3D11. Then the game runs in DirectX 11 again whice is boring.My PC can run DirectX 12 in Delta Force and Tomb Raider and I get a stable 70-80 fps 4K native max settings...Any fix? PC has been restarted and I have tried doing optimized defaults in bios still no use.

    :)
