I've got an AMD A10-7700K APU coming in the mail tomorrow and It's Mantle compatible, was wondering if I need to download both Mantle AND Directx, or just Mantle. Also is there a fast way to update everything needed when a new build is put together? Drivers / things like Directx etc. Thank you.
 
Solution
yes. not all games support Mantle, and it can't hurt to have DX in the case that Mantle performance in future games that support it are unoptimized.
