Coreper Posted May 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 does that mean i dont need to install Windows Vista to run DirectX 10 games? [like Crysis]? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan2273 Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 It will make DirectX 10 games work on Windows XP. And games such as the upcoming Crysis won't work on the existing DirectX 9.0 c. but they will on DirectX 9.0 L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coreper Posted May 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 wow! that rocks!but i still need a DirectX 10 card, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackrat Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 After reading that article, I would say The Inquirer does not tell the whole story ( they have retracted this story).DX9L is part of the Vista OS, DX9L is so you can run DX9 games on VISTA.But all the games for a while will run in DX9 or DX10 for the time being.
