no directx11, only directx 10

Nvidia didn't incorporate DX11 Untill their 400 series cards. so the answer like RGD1101 said is no it will not play those games that require DX11 to run.

the GPU only limited to DirectX 10. it doesn't have the necessary hardware to run DirectX 11. that DX 11 mention in the system information was talking about what exact DirectX comes with Win 7 and not about your gpu.

thankyou renz496 one last question when should i upgrade to a dx11 card as dx11 cards are insanely expensive in my country

renz496 · Nov 20, 2013

Muhammad Abdullah :

they were ranging from low end to high end. some of the low end one despite having dx11 hardware in them they were too weak to handle dx11 feature such as tessellation. most games today still have backward compatibility down to dx10/dx9. not sure about Bf4 but Crysis can be played using either Dx11 or Dx9. but for these two if you want to see them in their full glory you're going to need top end hardware. if you really thinking of playing dx11 games with dx11 feature i recommend at least current mid range gpu like GTX660, GTX760, HD7800 or 270 from amd R series. cards like 7770 or GTX650 Ti are quite capable if you play below 1080p

renz496 :

Some of this information is incorrect. Crysis 3 is a DX11 only title . It can not be run in DX9. I know because I have the game. The last Crysis title to be released that was able to be played in DX9 was Crysis 2.

renz496 · Nov 20, 2013

if i remember correctly crytek once said the game will be compatible with DX11 and 9 but they will not make dx10 path. there are no option to choose lower version of dx for the game but it seems you can force it to run on dx9 by making changes to the cfg file:

bgunner · Nov 20, 2013

I tried what they said to do and the game still launched in DX11. :/ This strait from someone who tried it. I mean I just tried it.
