    Hi.. I'm using Windows 7 64 bit with  Nvidia Geforce 8600GT,2 GB RAM,Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz..
    I've downloaded latest driver for my graphic card from the manufacturer's site for Windows 7..
    While playing games,especially in Halo2,i don't feel any difference in graphics between Direct X 10(Vista) and Direct X 11(Windows 7)..
    So,what is improved in Direct X 11 when compared to Direct X 10..??
    so,why should i use Direct X 11..???

    You'll have wait for some actual direct x 11 games to be released. Direct x 11 is much like Direct x 10 but more optimized, faster.

    Hey Manivarnan.

    There's no nVidia DirectX 11 graphics cards yet, or games. :-)  You'll need to wait for support from the graphics card manufacterers and game developers.

    Probably due to pre-release graphics card drivers.
