Awsome. Nice 20% increase in AA performance and boosts minimum fps. And if that is not enough, better image quality over directx10.

"The impact that DX10.1 has is quite frankly greater than expected. A 20% improvement in AA performance is very impressive. GPU refreshes have been built around lesser gains. Based on the game's behavior it's possible that Ubi are doing their own Custom Resolve in order to get HDR correct AA, and are also taking advantage of the full access to MSAA buffers DX10.1 brings in order to get both better quality and better performance, but without an official statement we'd rather refrain from speculating further."

Sucks for those guys who ran out to buy 8800s and so on when they came out then I guess, lol.

Won't DX10.1 just be a software upgrade from DX10? I don't see why it wouldn't work with Nvidia's cards.

It won't work on current nv cards. It needs hardware support.

edit: hahah the support forums for this game are full of nv owners

No DX 10.1 is different from DX 10

But maybe CUDA can fix this
(for those of you that don't know, CUDA is some sort of programming language for the 8-series video cards)

Aww sucks. Been an nvidia fanboy since forever so won't be getting one of those. Will instead wait patiently for the overpriced DX 10.1's to be released by nvidia for my upgrade instead.

I rather the 640 I bought almost a year ago with no 10.1 support, than my shitbox 9800 with no PS3.0 support.

Besides I'm only on DX9 anyway

My state was founded by Batman. Your opinion is invalid.
