Gamers: Save $100 and get DirectX 11 for Vista!
Filed under: Games , OS Updates , Microsoft At long last — and some would wonder why now , after the release of Windows 7 — DirectX 11 is finally available for Windows Vista . This means, while still taking a performance hit for running Vista, you could in theory divert that $100 you would spend on Windows 7 into a new, DirectX 11-enabled graphics card! To obtain it, you need to download the ‘ Platform Update ‘ which includes a lot of other updates for the Windows Vista and Server 2008 operating systems — but other than the addition of DirectCompute (which I discussed in my previous feature on DirectX 11), there isn’t a whole lot to report
