Mass Effect DX9 Vs DX10 Question/DX9 Vs DX10 Discussion

Hi People!

I was just wondering what is the better setting to use in mass effect.

I no DX10 is more 3d better lighting etc, but my pc can't take it with AA & AF.If i turn AA & AF Off i can run on the highest settings.

If i use DX9 i can max out everything including AA & AF.

So whats better DX10maxed outwith no AA & AF or DX9 maxed out with full AA & AF

Will there be much difference?

Thanks

It doesn't have DX 10 support.

Maxing it out with full AA and AF is the best way to play it, there is no such thing as DX 9 with full AA and AF or DX 10 with no AA and AF if you can max it out and use AA you use it, anyway UE 3 doesn't do great in that department (AA) but it's decent.

P.S I don't know what DX 10 games you played but your card can/should definitely perform great in DX 10 games with AA and AF on, I have an 8800GT and I have no problems in maxing out any DX 10 games and still use decent amounts of AA and AF at 1440x900 (rarely) or 1680x1050, except Crysis of course.

I Thought U Could Select DX9 Or 10 In Game Settings? lol Im New To PC Gaming Had Console Up Till A Few Months Ago And Onli Just Got Gaming Rig.

Not all games have DX 10, and not all Unreal Engine 3 games have it, just Bioshock from the list of UE 3 games.

Mass Effect is an xbox port, it doesn't have DX10 support.

Ok Thanx Company Of Heroes I Can Max Out with Full AA & AF Thats Going To Be The First Game I Play On Me New PCI Wasn't Sure If I Could Play Mass Effect Because I've Bin Looking At Benchmarks On Websites they say like 30 fps Maxed Out For The 4890Lol Very Confusing :D Going To Get Mass Effect Looks Great!
