Re: Run Direct x 11 in Windows Vista.
Would there be any advantages of using Directx 11 over 10 for my system?

Re: Run Direct x 11 in Windows Vista.
But I mean would running Directx 11 with a Directx 10, lets say, Windows game; would there be a speed difference? Performance improvements?

Re: Run Direct x 11 in Windows Vista.
Cool, so any one can try it right? Actually, can my graphics card support it? It is just a driver thing right?
