DX11 or DX12

[Adeptus]

Whats better performancewhise?

Dont know if it makes a difference at all (Got a 1080ti)

[DeaDBreaD]

how do i even change? Made the mistake and started in dx12 and now i dont get that window again.

[Klinex]

DX11 seem to be a better choice right now.

Had lot of hickups with DX12 in the demo. DX11 worked buttery smooth tho!

In the final release, i can't switch to DX11 for some reason. Game stays in DX12 all the time. It's unplayable for me atm with DX12, which is pretty sad imo.

[Retro Ranger]

well, i feel dx11 runs better

[SerpenttearS]

u all crazy :D release Outriders build HAVEN'T dx11. game always run as dx12 not matter what u put to command line.

12 is better of course, the difference is cpu usage.

Direct x12 will take less cpu than direct x11, so that mean the game run better on hight setting, but as always, it s depend what specs is your pc.

Note direct x12 is windows 10 only, i know their is pepoele still on older windows version, then, these pepoele have to choose direct x11 cause 12 can't work

DX12 runs better for me.

then you brainafk-clicked the window on the first start where it asked you what dx you want to start.

again: how do i get that window back to decide which dx i want?

Both have stutters and some fps drops and I have 3060 ti so go with DX12.

Have you tried this:
Go to Steam, right click Outriders, go to Properties, General tab and Set Launch Options then add "-dx11".

Not sure it'll work but.. that's what i would try.

I don't think DX11 is in the game right now, despite all the DX11 options.
If you run tools like MSI afterburner you can see the info that the game is always in DX12 mode, no matter the option you clicked.

DX11 works for me

[CorporateHammer]

AMD = DX12
NVIDIA = DX11

Just the way it is.
