This error indicates that your graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements to run VALORANT. You need a DirectX 11 compatible GPU with Feature Level 11.0 and Shader Model 5.0 support. Here are your options:
1. Update Drivers: Ensure your GPU drivers are up to date. Visit the manufacturer’s website (e.g., NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) for the latest drivers.
2. Check Compatibility: Verify that your GPU actually supports DirectX 11, Feature Level 11.0, and Shader Model 5.0. You can check this by running
dxdiag
on your PC (press Win+R
, type dxdiag
, and hit Enter).
3. Upgrade Hardware: If your GPU is not compatible, you may need to consider upgrading to a GPU that meets the minimum requirements for VALORANT.
