Windows 10 Gaming Features


DirectX 12 unlocks the full capabilities of your PCs video hardware to deliver unparalleled graphic fidelity and improved performance. Time to advance to the next level in gaming...
Through its collection of APIs (Application Programming Interfaces), DirectX 12 allows the workload to be shared between multiple cores of your processor, which results in faster and more responsive images in a higher resolution. Games will also have a reduced draw call overhead, which means less time to wait while your processor asks your graphics card to render something.
Images render more quickly, which means a smoother animation with richer detail. You'll feel more in sync with the gaming experience than ever before.
Tom Boxwell explains why graphics are about to get even more glorious for Windows PC gamers.
