DX10 or DX11

Featured Replies

In FSX there is the possibility to use DX10 preview. After checking my computer (running Win 7 32 bit) I saw thas DX11 has been installed. Do I get the benifits of DX 11 automaticly or do I would using DX 10 preview the best thing to do ?

FSX was only coded to run DX9 and DX10. A graphics engine typically needs to be coded to utilize newer versions of DirectX. Otherwise, it won't be used.

If I understand it well, it's better to install DX10 and use it instead of DX 11

Your configuration is fine. You have DX11 installed on your computer. Make sure that DX10 is not checked in Flight Simulator and it will be using the "DX9" functions of DX11. You can always have a later version of DX installed.

FSX will not run under DX11.

 

Installing FSX also installs DX9 which is what FSX uses.
