direct x 12

jjohnthedon1 · August 25, 2015

hi guys, so i have a 980ti and it hits 100 percent load in games so can i expect to see any extra fps with direct x 12 or will it just lower my cpu overhead as i can already max the card out ?

Most games that you have now won't support it, so you won't notice increase in those games. But in games that support it, you should notice some decent improvements.

maybe a little bit, not much of a difference with a higher-end build, it should benefit lower end cpus the most

You will not see much extra fps as current games have to be rewritten with DX12 support. DX12 games that will release will see a lower cpu usage, but the gpu will still do most of the work. Ashes of the Singularity is an upcoming game and benchmarks show that Nvidia cards will not gain much fps in DX12 than DX11, but AMD will see some big improvements.
