How much of a difference is there between Dx11 and Dx10.1

[arun456]

I have a 4770 and want to upgrade. Want to buy a card once for the next two years and then will probably crossfire it. Have a budget of Ati 4870.
Or could wait for a while and go for the 5870.
Q)How good is Dx 11 and what it would be its effect on games coming out in the next 3-4 years.

thx..

hope it turns out to be sumthin good !

Well there's about 50 released / waiting to be released DX10 games and 9 for DX11.

And every one of those 50 can be changed to DX11 quite easily also, besides the 9 for sure ones.
One thing to remember here is, in a years time, therell be almost no games with DX10 ONLY support
edit, thatll be coming out a year from now
