Yeah pretty much.
Note I was wrong about the Nvidia thing, it's just Asynchronous Computing that doesn't work right now. (whatever that means)
Doom FAQ about Vulkan states:
*Vulkan is not currently supported on NVIDIA GPUs with 2 GB of RAM on Windows 7 or on the GTX 690. Users with these GPUs need to run DOOM on the OpenGL graphics API.
So I guess it's just the combination of the less than 2 GB of RAM in those GPU's and Windows 7 that doesn't work.
Should work on other video cards with more RAM.
I hope Vulkan takes off, not using DX12 is a good thing.
