I doubt the 9600 would be able to run any DX12 titles even with DX12 support

No. Max the 9000 series supports is basic DX 10. The hardware needs to be designed to support later iterations of DirectX in order to use it unfortunately.

The 9600GT will work, but it would just be the same as using DirectX 11 (which the 9600GT doesn't support).

 

You'll still be able to use it and play games as before, just not any DX12 Exclusive titles, which I doubt there will be due to obvious compatibility.

Will the NVDIA geforce 9600 gt have support for DX12, even if it is a minimal upgrade just want to know if the upgrade to windows 10 is worth it from 7

I believe any graphics card that supports DirectX 11 will support DirectX 12. I might be wrong though.

Since the geforce 9600 gt supports up to DirectX 10 it seems unlikely.

hello!

is it me you're looking for?

Spoiler

Desktop: X99-PC

CPU: i7 5820k

Mobo: X99 Deluxe

Cooler: Dark Rock Pro 3

RAM: 32GB DDR4
GPU: GTX 1080

Storage: 1TB 850 Evo, 1TB HDD, bunch of external hard drives
PSU: EVGA G2 750w

Peripherals: Logitech G502, Ducky One 711

Audio: Xonar U7, O2 amplifier (RIP), HD6XX

Monitors: 4k 24" Dell monitor, 1080p 24" Asus monitor

 

Laptop:

-Overkill Dell XPS

Fully maxed out early 2017 Dell XPS 15, GTX 1050 4GB, 7700HQ, 1TB nvme SSD, 32GB RAM, 4k display. 97Whr battery :x 
Dell was having a $600 off sale for the fully specced out model, so I decided to get it :P

 

-Crapbook

Fully specced out early 2013 Macbook "pro" with gt 650m and constant 105c temperature on the CPU (GPU is 80-90C) when doing anything intensive...

A 2013 laptop with a regular sized battery still has better battery life than a 2017 laptop with a massive battery! I think this is a testament to apple's ability at making laptops, or maybe how little CPU technology has improved even 4+ years later (at least, until the recent introduction of 15W 4 core CPUs). Anyway, I'm never going to get a 35W CPU laptop again unless battery technology becomes ~5x better than as it is in 2018.

Apple knows how to make proper consumer-grade laptops (they don't know how to make pro laptops though). I guess this mostly software power efficiency related, but getting a mac makes perfect sense if you want a portable/powerful laptop that can do anything you want it to with great battery life.
