AMD RADEON rx5700 8 gb

I basically am trying to play a game that's really old called STALKER Shadows of Chernobyl. I've looked everywhere for a fix and even tried to get a refund from where I bought it. Now I ain't a genius but I am savvy enough to understand this might have to do with the graphics card. Now I have inserted the pics below to see what is going on. I've seen the google search results that said that the 5700 is literally good with the direct x 9.0c. While the 5700xt is not. I got the 5700 not the 5700xt. I want to know if this is true. Is there a workaround with the driver I got to play a game that basically uses direct x 9.0c? I have a PC that runs Direct x 12 and heard this literally backwards and forward compatible. Any help appreciated and acknowledged.Screenshot (1).pngScreenshot (2).pngScreenshot (3).pngScreenshot (4).pngScreenshot (5).png

It may have to do with where you purchased your "CDKey"

I saw it on sale on Steam last week for $4.99, how much did you pay for your "key"?

Have you tried installing any of the patches or mods like STALKER Complete?

I have an original STALKER SoC box version I purchased on DVD back when it came out and it plays fine on my 7900XT.

According to 'pcgamingwiki' the steam version needs some changes to be made for it to run on Win.10/11.

Might also be mentioned in the steam guides?
