Autodesk 3ds Max 2021Graphics Hardware Certification – Microsoft WindowsImportant NotesThe following describes important notes related to the graphics hardware certification for the forthe Autodesk 3ds Max 2021 product release. Certification of graphics cards was done using Nitrous Direct3D mode OpenGL has not been Certified and therefore you may encounter issues that havenot been listed in this documentNitrous Direct3D 11 was used for Windows 10. Nitrous Direct3D 9 has not beentestedCertification is being performed on both single and dual screen configurations atresolution of 1920x1200 (60Hz each).If you are experiencing additional display issues, not listed in this document, rt(http://www.autodesk.com/3dsmax-support). You can find certification results for prior releases of Autodesk 3ds Max product atthe 3ds Max Certified Hardware link.To report problems directly to the Hardware Certification group, use the Report aProblem form.Disclaimer: Not all Caveats in the tables below are driver problems. Some may be 3ds Max softwarelimitations, or inherent limitations due to the API version used by certain graphics cards. Caveatsmeeting this criterion will be marked as such in the Caveats table at the bottom of this document. Autodesk certification testing focuses on workstation-grade hardware, as identified by thehardware vendor. Testing and designation as Certified does not guarantee that a particular deviceis workstation-grade or that it will meet a user's particular needs. Test results are valid only for thetested combination of hardware and driver. Certified status does not guarantee that the hardwarewill perform acceptably with other drivers. Cards labelled as certified are fully supported by graphics cards vendors for use with Autodeskapplications. Other cards labelled as tested, while they may not have reported any errors duringour certification tests, do not have the same level of vendor support in the case of specific graphicsfidelity and instabilityPage 2
