Cannot enable Ray Tracing features on a 6GB graphics card

Hello. I wanted to try Ray Tracing feature but it seems that it is grayed out. In early 2025 I could have enabled ray tracing on my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Super machine with all of the features. However, recently I have reinstalled the game to try out the PTGI and i came across all of the ray tracing settings being grayed out.


When I installed the game, it was at Direct3D 11 but when I switched it to Direct3D 12 and restarted the game, the options were available. When I restarted the game again, the options were greyed out again.
I see that it requires a 6GB graphics card and I do indeed have a 6GB graphics card.

gtx cards cant run raytracing and even if they did they would never be able to run it at more than 10fps

The GTX 10- and 16- Series don’t support Ray Tracing, you need at very least a 20- Series Card.
