Hello guys,
I realized that more experts can be found in this place. So joined here today. Actually I am really getting messed up with directx. I have installed windows 8.1 in my laptop. After installing it ,when I saw dxdiag.exe it showed that my GPU is compatible with Direct 11. My GPU is Intel HD graphics 3000. I surfed many websites. They were saying that Intel HD graphics 3000 is only compatible with direct 10.1. And windows 8.1 is compatible only with drirectx 11 and up.

I am really confused a lot wheather to install directx 10.1 or directx 11 or 11.2. My question is which directx should I install now?? It should be faster when compared to other directx. So please help me to find a solution.

My specs:
Laptop
Intel core i5 2500M 2.50 GHz
4GB ram
Windows 8.1 pro
Intel HD graphics 3000.

Please help me. Thank you.
