    WoW doesn't have an option for DirectX 10. You have to set it to DirectX 11 and to able to do that you have to install the update for DirectX11 in Vista.

    This means that either you don't have DirectX 11 installed or don't have a DirectX 10.1 or higher compatible video card.

    No, directx11 can function in Windows Vista.

    what benefits will dx11 have on wow? my sub expired a few days ago and honestly i didn't know this was an option until this thread. i launched wow to the loading screen and changed it to dx11 so i guess my comp can do it.

    Few improved effects but mostly a better memory management.

    That would be the first one. The one that doesn't say x64 when you click on it.
    Super casual.

    About 15-20% higher maximum framerate + less bugs.

    Most DirectX 10.1 cards (like Nvidia's GT2xx series and Radeon 4xxx series) will work in WoW's DX11 mode btw.
    Never going to log into this garbage forum again as long as calling obvious troll obvious troll is the easiest way to get banned.
    Trolling should be.
