About Playing With DX11

Leo · (This post was last modified: 10-23-2010, 12:23 AM by Leo.)

Well,I want to know if DX11 is better in FPS Speed than DX9.

First,Dolphin don't show it in the configs.Well,is the same with DX9 if you don't install ultimate D3D version.But my drivers are up to date and I have a DX SDK from this year!

Second,I don't know...I searched in Google,but I found nothing.My Graphics Card,it supports DX11?

Thanks!

Short answer: NO.

Good luck.

Right now, DX11 is about 50% slower than DX9 (prolly a bit faster, but I always say 50% so that nobody gets disappointed Tongue

). Some games get a huge speed boost by using a special blending feature, e.g. SMG. Still, DX11 will be about 10-20% slower as well then.

IIRC, your gpu is at least dx10 capable. You could've just checked wikipedia though... or just try the plugin and see Wink

It may depend on your current hardware. It always seems to be faster on my system.
