dirt 2 in DX10

dirt 2 will take advantage of DX11, but will it look anywhere near as impressive in DX10? i have a feeling that it will really just be DX9 or DX11 in reality, allowing no DX10 cards to shine.

Do you mean DX10 will look the worst? If so why?wooooode

no, i mean DX10 will look the same as DX9.

DX10 will always look better than DX9. Where did you get that idea from?

yeah, thats what i was worried about. i may or may not upgrade to Win7 (dunno yet), and if i do, i will be keeping my 8800 for quite a while longer becuase its still perfectly usable, and i dont see the need for more power. and i want to see it actually be used properly in DX10. but DX10 will probably just be ignored in favor of DX9.

i dunno what ur obsession with DX9 is. i highly doubt a DX11 game is gonna either support DX11 or DX9 and skip DX10 graphics. but anyways, vista is gonna have DX11 too, so you don't need windows 7 to get it.rock_solid

I actually got a update for DX11 yesterday on my laptop.

So now it's like DX11... but my GPU only supports DX10... maybe after a driver update...

Will the HD 4800 series be able to support DX 11 shortly? that would be sweet for temporary uses till i get the money for a 5850

Bummer I did read somewhere that the 4000 series might be able to support somefeatures of DX11, not very many though...key word "might"

i've read somewere that by coding in DX11 you automatically make the game dx10, dx10.1 and dx9c compatible because the way the api is designed it automatically scales and it only needs very few tweaks. Good news for us, we should start to get dx11 games quicker.

dx10 cards can handle SOME of the dx11 features, this was explained by both nvidia and ati. Mostly lighting enhancements and such. However many of the best things in DX11 will not be supported... sadface.

u need a graphic card that is capable of utilizing DX11 and the radeon 5000 series are the only ones that supports itmike4realz
