To fully utilize DirectX 12 Ultimate (which Agility SDK 1.716.1 enhances) you need a DX12 Ultimate-compatible GPU such as:

NVIDIA:

RTX 20 Series - RTX 2060, 2070, 2080
RTX 30 Series - RTX 3060, 3070, 3080, 3090
RTX 40 Series - RTX 4060, 4070, 4080, 4090
RTX 50 Series - RTX 5070, 5080, 5090

AMD:

Radeon RX 6000 Series - RX 6600, 6700, 6800, 6900
Radeon RX 7000 Series - RX 7600, 7700, 7900
Radeon RX 9000 Series - RX 9700, 9800, 9900

Intel:

Intel Arc A-Series - Arc A380, A750, A770
Intel Arc B-Series - Arc B580, B770, B780

Older GPUs, like GTX 10 series or Radeon RX 5000 series, do not fully support DX12 Ultimate features like Mesh Shaders, Sampler Feedback, Variable Rate Shading (VRS), and DXR 1.1 (Ray Tracing)
