TechConnect Magazine is reporting that NVIDIA’s upcoming 9600 GT, which will be the first card to be launched as part of the new GeForce 9 Series of graphics cards, will not feature DirectX 10.1. DirectX 10.1 provides some extra features over the current DirectX 10 used in Windows Vista and is expected to be adopted as the standard for most cards released over the next year, with AMD’s Radeon HD 3400 and 3600 cards already supporting it. However, it looks like NVIDIA has decided not to include DX10.1 support with the first of its new midrange cards, which is unlikely to cause too much of a performance impact but is surprising given that it would have made the card look better on paper, if nothing else.
.Well a slightly better view but not that much.Thats why its called 10.1.Dont worry go ahead and buy one.Micro$hit told that they would not release DX11 until 10/11 but will release little patches for 10.1.
