Crysis: DX9 vs. DX10: is there a difference?
If you think so, it seems as if it's mostly in your head
Hardocp.com wanted to find out, so they did a bunch of tests and here's what they discovered:
"When playing the game it was near impossible to tell the difference between DX9 and DX10"
"Taking the ?Pepsi Challenge? in Crysis comparing IQ between DX9 and DX10 would likely end in a draw. Only upon very close examination of screenshots could we truly identify the differences."
"NVIDIA GPU based video cards have no real-world gameplay differences between DX9 and DX10, so there is no reason not to run in DX10. AMD ATI GPU based video cards do suffer a performance penalty for using DX10. If you are running an NVIDA GPU based video card, continue to run in DX10, but if you are running an AMD ATI GPU based video card you might want to consider running in DX9 for the best Crysis experience."
