Okay...will DX10 work with video cards such as mine? And will DX10 be compatible with XP? I want to know this because I am not in the mood of getting a new rig...and especially not in the mood of getting rid of my Video Card :) :-/

DX10 will work with you current video card. Just as direct x 9 will work on a dx8 card. But to see directX10 effects you will have to have a direct X 10 compliant video card. That is why I have decided to wait for the first wave of DX10 compliant cards before I update my 9800pro.

Yes your DX9 card will not have DX10 acceleration but will run DX9 stuff just like usual with DX10.

I also will be waiting for DX10 cards to come out before upgrading to a whole new system.

I doubt that I will upgrade anything for FSX.  Since I am going to college in 2007, I will be stuck playing FS on a laptop.  Ill probably wait till FSXV (15) before I do any serious changes lol

I'm going in Sep. 2006 and I'm so hoping Windows Vista will come default on my laptop by the end of summer.

Obviously the release will be on the 4th quater of this year, so we all have plenty of time to prepare. Me, I upgrade regardless. Just because. ::)

I'm a tech freak. I like getting my hands on all the good gadgets. ;D
