DX12 helps a lot on the CPU side, the commands are made as lists within a single package and are able to be computed in a single package which reduces the CPU overhead.whereas, In DX11 the commands from CPU >>GPU are sent individually hence, making the process a lot slower because of the uneven interval of timing between the CPU >> GPU commands. It also matches the abstraction layer within the underlying hardware better than DX11.

there will be a increase on performance but, determining the accurate amount of increase is theoretically Impossible. though, I might be able to give a rough approximate explanation. Tongue
