Then you're not using dx12 any time soon either.

That a shame. Windows 10 is a POS. BSOD constantly.

There is no need to use Windows 10 just for DX12 BTW. there are no games out there that support DX12 native yet either. The ones that have the option available constantly Crash when using it anyway, Defeating opening them in the first place.


Ah I read just after this OG post I quoted another Fool saying the new xBox is a 4K machine. 2 Prolems with this statement MS is claming based on words they themselves said before advertising the new xBox playing at True 4K. 1.) The Average cost for hardware right now, would Exceed 6K to hve a Dream of playing at 4K Native. 2.) There are no games that are coded for 4K, andMS was told that no developers would even attempt it on the new xBox. Therefore no games coded for 4K no native 4K games.



Yes someone will say that they play on 4K al the time, but the truth is that it is a 2K game upscaled to 4K. This is not the same thing.....

Completely false.

Also false.

You like to ramble don't you?

No game using Directx 12 do not crash automatically -> Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Wolfenstein Youngblood,... I never had any problems.

Actually MS is bringing dx12 to windows 7 but only for certain games. (but not windows 8, which is odd or at least maybe windows 8 at a later date).

Also I too play some games in dx12, not noticed an increase in any issues, other than in some games frame rates drop, in some they increase (my gtx 970 does not have great dx12 support), but no increased crashing as such.

Also there are native 4k games on pc, now yes especially on consoles many are upscaled due to the hardware limitations, but pc does actually have 4k native support in quite a few modern AAA titles.

So back on topic, in 2016 the answer was no.

In 2019 the answer is now yes you will be able too, but only for a limited amount of games :)

Wow.. there is so much error in this post that it's hard to even know where to start and for someone born in 75 (I was born in 73) it seems like you haven't learned anything... but lets start here, are you suggesting that there are no true native 4k games to date? are you suggesting that when I play Mankind Divided on my PC at 4k res 60fps that im really playing 2k upscaled? (lol)..

Also dx12 has never crashed for me either, in any game and if you are having such issues then the problem resides somewhere within your rig be it bad hardware or corrupted software.

That's a shame that you have a buggy unstable PC.. I have had win 10 since it was first avail and have never had a single blue screen.. neither have the 30 or so other builds which I have assembled for clients.

Not wrong about any of that Posted Erebus. Another Fact you won't read anywhere but in the Microsoft Whitepapers is that there was plans to use DX12 in Windows 7 already and the availability of the Option is compatable.

You are probably thinking in huge doubt, but the reason it wasn't actually launched with Windows 7 installations is because of Windows 8.1.

In the end I know what I know, and I no one needs to agree with me. So When I actually get to doing it I will do my best to show it is possible. Keep in mind I don't care enough to prove myself so don't get your hopes up!!!!


This Subscription is deleted so no more post here Laters. Go learn the facts then have some way to support your theories. It has always been that way and nothing in our lives will ever change that ///.....\\\

Thats what I was saying more or less. They were talking about a Optimized Full install back just before Windows 8 was released, it just got suspended because the BS Windows 8.0 Caused.

You are. There are some native DX12 games, Windows 7 cannot do full DX12 support only a more limited application solely for compat (for full performance and all the "meat" they'd have to overhaul the Win 7 kernel), DX12 doesn't constantly crash most those reports are involving Nvidia's drivers not a flaw with DX12 (until Turing Nvidia had no real support of DX12 and things like async simply didn't work well on it), and more.

You love 7 and hate 10 so much you're putting out bad information as "truth".

Forget about DX12 and install reshades instead, the game will be more enjoyable with minimum FPS impact.
Enjoy the beauty of this Game ->

THIS RESHADE IS A BLAST!
