Hi, not a big deal, but I am curious about why I cannot run Dx10 on Civ5.
I know my computer is not that fast, but it is a decent system. The game runs fine in Dx9 mode but Dx10 is literally a slide show. totally unplayable, even in a turn based setting.
My system is E4500 and 9800GT, neither overclocked. I have 3gb of ram and an running Vista at only 1440x900 resolution. Is Dx 10 really that demanding, or is there something that I am doing wrong?? It is not like the game has a lot going on or I am trying to run high resolution. Am I CPU limited?? Seems like a 9800GT should be able to handle this at my resolution.
Anyone else having similar results and any ideas what it takes to run DX10??
