no, DX11 is not "around the corner" - Vista7 will ship but there will be not be ANY DX11 games to go with it - just tech demos
:rolleyes:

DX11 games are about 2 years off - and they will be "patched in" DX11; true - from the ground up DX11, take at least a couple of years - who even has a DX11 Engine working now? it would be "alpha" stage
- Dx10 is just NOW taking off :P

4870 is more than twice faster than that slow ass 8800GT - 4870-x2 about 4x faster
:good:

Is there a list of DX10/DX10.1 games out there somewhere?

Are there any viable options for DX10 multiplayer at all?

Age of Conan is now DX10 [i reviewed it in October] and Hellgate: London [i wrote a 'goodbye' to it in December] was *awesome* DX10 that ran faster - and looked MUCH better - on the DX10 pathway than the DX9; that is the ONLY game i saw that did this, so far.

But that list of DX10 games would be fairly long by now
:read:

Here you go [less than i thought]
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ga ... 10_support

So ,, we can assume that there won't be any DX11 games for quite some time
(clock_e0)

That reminds me .. i still have a month paid for left to play of AoC ; i haven't even seen the DX10 pathway!
:worried: - i better hurry before they say "bye bye" also

but we really don't know that either .. there are always the rumors saying such-and-such a GPU is delayed
- Right NOW .. is a great time to get awesome performance for cheap - at least compared to months and years past
