Those waves do look much better in DX10.

I look forward to experiancing these new effects in 2 years time when I can get Vista and a DX10 card.

I have vowed never to buy a video card over £100, as thats to much money for a slight increase in FPS for just a video, no matter how much I enjoy them. So I'm looking out for good clearence deals on older cards on etailer sites.

I hardly believe it, must see with own eyes!

I have to say there is a significant improvement, the letdown is they do not have any AA!!! Jaggies on the DX10 ones!!

For £100 you are going to be limited to DX9 for now.

I realise that motion blur needs to be moving to see the affect but it dosent do anything for me and the other pics wont make me pay out for a new OS and graphics card.
XP and DX9 for me for the forseable future especially if you allow for the loss of fps in Vista,hey you never know this may not be an issue with crysis,but i wouldnt bet on it.

...and for much later, cause 100 quid will get you mid-lower cards which are really not worth it

damn it! mished a post.
Indeed, the graphics in crysis DX10 do look amazing but AA is desperatly needed to make a good impression

Pic look good, can't say I'm a fan of motion blur.

I can't believe that there's that large of a difference.

Yeah, seriously, I'm with ya.

Yea it's nice, but I don't want to run Vista to get it!!!!!!!

My XP Pro works well for me.

Ground textures have a nice depth illusion in DX10 version.

While its obvious that the realism is greater in DX10 and the image quality is better than DX9 i personally prefer the High DX9 image as far as game playing is concerned,it may just be me but the image was clearer ie things stuck out more.I guess the fact that the boat and the guards are not that easy to see straight off is all part of the DX10 realism but i would find it easier to play in DX9.
Just my personal taste though

The two biggest things that struck me about the DX 10 was the lighting and reflection.

looks great. I can't wait to see some official benchmarks of the final release. I hope my new 8800GTS can handle it under DX10!

Dx10 version is the clear winner, with more dense vegetation, polygonal waves instead of plain waves, the lighting is better overall, and the pictures morton has shared with us shows DX10 ground displacement makes it look absolutely beatuiful.

Will I buy a Dx10 card and do a Vista upgrade for this? No. Until a 180-200usd gfx card runs Crysis like a dream, I will not.

well, i've already gone and ordered a 2900 pro, and I'm on vista already, it was interesting to note that the dx10 waves actually looked 3d, not just bump mapping type 3d

I hope to see more of these DX9 vs DX10 screenshots. For good or bad.
