Isn't that the whole thing? Since W7 is about to go EoL MS doesn't loose any migration.This doesn't make senses. Isn't DX12 1 of the tools to get you to migrate to 10? I'm for it but I don't get the benefit its only good till 2020. What am i missing?
Isn't it also easier (and thus cheaper) to program DX11?... They finally had to accept that most developers are continuing to ignore DX12 in favor of DX11, since 7 has too big a userbase to ignore financially. ...
I got the impression that DX12 "allows" (requires) the programmer to make hardware specific optimizations to get even better performance.
