Will my GPU use DX 12

[ColtxKiLA]

I have a built in Intel 3000 GPU and a Intel i3, will directx 12 improve my gaming experience at all or is it a waste of time?

Not on your CPU, no.

Which hardware will be DX12-compatible? AMD said all of its Graphics Core Next-based Radeon GPUs (i.e. Radeon HD 7000 series and newer) will work with the new API. Nvidia pledged support for all Fermi, Kepler, and Maxwell (i.e. GeForce GTX 400 series and newer) parts. The keynote included a demo of Forza 5 running in DirectX 12 mode atop an Nvidia GPU. Finally, Intel said the integrated graphics in its existing Haswell processors will also have DX12 support.
