Microsoft DirectX 9.0c available

DirectX 9.0c in finaly available. Microsoft put the Redistributable and the SDK Summer 2004 update on its servers. The web installer is not here yet.

Microsoft finally released a new version of DirectX 9. The new version with the identifier 9.0c replaces 9.0b and adds Shader Model 3.0 support, which is one of the major new features in NVIDIAs new GeForce 6800 graphics processors. The recently released NVIDIA driver v61.76 already supports SM3.0, but it's not enabled by default. With the release of the new DirectX version, we expect that NVIDIA will release a new DirectX 9.0c alias SM3.0 enabled driver soon.
