    DirectX 11?

    Well, as stated, [obviously] no games are going to be released this year with Dx11 support, and undoubtedly lots of Dx11 games in 2010...

    So, there is no reason to wait for a card with Dx11 support, if you want to upgrade your graphics card now... your new generation ATI / Nvidia will keep you happy for a long time to come.

    (I still have my old Nvidia GeForce 8800GTS 320MB, and I am still very very happy with it. (yes the first ones ))

    Sheesh you right, can't keep up with all these new cards, seriously annoying. Not to mention they are rebranding and selling cards now, like with the GTRX250.

    Its not much of a surprise, planning for the future. Same happened with the release of Vista. At least they'll release the support for it so the games can start coming out with it as well.

    It's just sillyness... Methinks I'm going to have to put some money down on some horse races or something if I'm ever going to be able to keep up. Stock trading... Now there's an idea...

    I also have one, but I'm finding tis showing its age a bit. What resolution do you game at? I'm at 1680x1050 and Empire Total War run at around 20FPS on lowish settings. It may be a CPU or ram thing. But still, I am eyeing an upgrade this year.

    I think I will wait a bit for the HD 4870 to come down.

    As for DX11 gaming, I havent heard much? Are MS shopping the before/after shots around yet, displaying the epic next gen visual capabilities of their latest ap?(sarcasm)
