that’s wierd… crysis does run noticably better in dx9 for me too, but in farcry2 @ 1920X1200 with 4XAA/16XAF dx10\>dx9 hands down in performance (looks a little better too) maybe it’s a 64bit vs 32bit thing? ---

lol yeah, 10.1 is supposed to add some new API functions and improve performance a bit afaik, but ATi is the only company making them at the moment. Not even sure if any software supports it yet. It wasn’t as big a jump as dx9b was to dx9c… with windows 7 around the corner, it wont be long before DX11 is here ---
