There has been something puzzling me lately. DirectX 11 seems like it would make my media center computer, that I'm building, much more eye catching, but it seems to be fairly new and currently only ATI offers it. I have a decent Radeon HD 2600PRO, and I'm currently using that, however the lag is too much for me to stand and I'm honestly thinking of paying $150 to get the 5750. At this moment, I'm looking at the 5600 series and I am greatly considering one. I read recently that that series will have 5 seperate editions within it. So, I will probably wait until a 5690 (or something like that) comes out. Another thing I am looking at is the cheaper 4000 series, they seem to have no speed difference (actually some seem to be better than their 5000 series counterparts), They just don't have DX11 and are notably cheaper. The one I'm looking at is the 4650 which has a higher core clock than the 5670.
If I buy that and decide to late upgrade to a 5000 (or even 6000) series, I can just put it into another computer. So, Is DirectX 11 worth it at this stage?
By the WAY, I stick to XFX cards because of lifetime warranty and Quality products.
