If you already have SP1, you also have directx 10.1.

In the dxdiag screen look at the last line. The version number of directx 10.1 is 6.00.6001.18000

Heck most games don't even support DX 10...AOC anyone ?

The number of games that do have DX10 can be counted on one hand.

No thanks I'll stick with DX9

Don't gt me wrong I want DX10 eyecandy....I just don't want to have to use Vista to get it. ( I do have Vista though....used it for 6 months and reinstalled XP)

Actually they can't be counted on 1 hand anymore:

DMC4

Lost planet

Crysis

Assassin Creed

Halo 2

Ahh... wow damn you're right. Exactly 1 hand! When Alan awake will be released it'll be 6 though! So I'll prove you wrong in about... 20 years :(

+DoW 2, I didn't see it there.

@ Sinotek: Halo 2 doesn't have DX 10 :/ it's just Vista exclusive.
