DX 10, worth having vista?

Monosodium · 03-06-2008, 01:01 AM

I have an ATI Radeon 2600HD installed, which has DX 10 on it, I currently have Vista installed and am debating going back to XP. Opinions on whether DX 10 is worth anything at all?

to be honest i dont think the 2600 is powerful enough to run dx 10

Frowns at owned. Yes it works fine in vista but the card really isn't very high end and you would see much better performance in xp. When I was using vista with mine it didn't seem any faster.
