direct3d 9 vs direct3d 11

[W0MB13]

Hi,

I only yesterday discovered how far wii emulation actually is at this point in time, and figured this would be a good way of playing games, instead of plugging my actual wii into my PC monitor and upscaling etc etc

My PC is as follows

Core i7 720 overclocked to 4.0ghz
6gb DDR3 @ 1600mhz
2x GTX275's in SLI

Just testing with Mario Kart wii, Direct3D11 plugin runs it perfectly smoothly at a constant 60fps, as does Direct3D9. However I think OpenGL looks better, but it runs at around 40fps and drops below every now and then, and isn't really smooth enough.

My question, is the Direct3D11 plugin designed to use DirectX 11? (My cards are only DX10). Also, is there any reason/advantage to use the DX11 plugin instead of the DX9 plugin?

Thanks.

Direct3D11 plugin contain both Dx10 and Dx11.Some games need Dx11 plugin to have a correct graphic (Metroid Other M , Mario Sport Mix) but Dx11 cause graphic error in some games too . And the fastest in speed (depend on the game) D3D9 > D3D11 > OpenGL

Nope, Dolphin 2.0 is r5350 which was out of date a long time ago,no way you can simply put Dx11 plugin in such old rev .Get the lastest on the main site - download section
