GTX 280 – DX9 vs. DX10

For all of these apples-to-apples tests we have both testing scenarios being tested at the exact same settings. We are using the highest in-game settings of “Ultra High” selected in the “Overall” option. All we have done is switch between DX9 and DX10 API with the in-game selection. The resolution is set to 1920x1200, AA is disabled in one set of tests and enabled at 8X AA in the other set, and AF is at the highest level the game supports.
