Is AutoCAD 2020 compatible with NVIDIA GeForce GTX or RTX ?

Is AutoCAD 2020 compatible with NVIDIA GeForce GTX or RTX graphics cards?

Is there a list of compatible NVIDIA graphics cards other than GeForce Quadro as show here https://knowledge.autodesk.com/certified-graphics-hardware ?

Seem unlikely to me that AutoCAD 2020 only supports NVIDI's Quadro cards.

Thanks

Hi there!

Is it still works well?

It's impossible for me to launch autocad 2020 now with RTX2060, it's only able with /nohardware mode

NO!!!!

Autocad crashes immediately before even starting.

I bought an expensive graphics card, Geforce RTX 2080 SUPER, for CAD and video editing.

I also have to disable the hardware..

rediculous!

For me - YES, RTX 2060 works with Autocad 2020 on Windows 10 with acceleration enabled.
But only on 1909 Windows 10 release with any latest nvidia drivers.
Autocad stoped loading when i installed 20H2 Windows release.
The same issue is for DWG TrueView 2021.

I am tagging on to this post because I have end user experience in the video card dance....

This comment is meant to serve as end user input...

Hello, I have been using a ---NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti (current driver: Driver version: 27.21.14.6079) ---

card for a couple years now and here is what I have experienced. It seems to run perfectly when I use Inventor BUT when I am using AutoCAD Mechanical (vanilla AutoCAD isn't enough for what I do in 2D) I am ALWAYS having issues with basic regen issues and believe it or not with how BLOCKS act. Over the last 2 years its gotten trickier (I'd say worse but its hit and miss).

Autodesk did a MAJOR overhaul in the "back end" workings of its AutoCAD line and its behavior has changed (also mix in Microsoft OS updates) during the last 2 years. I've seen that problem occur when I am mixing old CAD data with the new software. I get weird regen issues all the time. Xrefing a file then binding it via insert mostly fixes MY blocking issues when I import old data that I have been using. I also use an add on package from Siemens for a block set I need when working with General Motors in AutoCAD. GM doesn't use Autodesk but there vendor provides a free block package I need for compatibility. I have spoken with high level Autodesk engineers when I have issues (more than the forum can provide)

Lately I seem to have an issue when switching pages in paperspace. For some reason I have to do a manual REA to get my title blocks to show properly but I am also having to make sure my viewport window is displaying what I want properly but this occurs when I get vendor files. There is ALOT of file cleaning to make things work in AutoCAD.

I covered a lot in this positive add on.

--The previous card I used was a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 1080 Ti--

I am a Autodesk user and supporter but I am also a gamer.

Please let us know if your situation is resolved...I was considering updating to latest windows build....but I wouldn't want autocad to hate my 1070 or to render it useless on my pc...thanks and hope you recover

Nvidia is 100% compatible in my case. I found the issue reason. It was Capture One installed in my comp. The incompatibility was solved in Autodesk 2022 version.
I also have possibility to compare 2060 and RTX 4000 Quatro in Autodesk 2022. No significant improvement. By the way RTX 4000 drivers have problems with Capture One software with Autodesk 2021 also.

How can capture one cause a problem with Autocad?

I have a rtx 2080 super and autocad crashes with hardware acceleration on.
