Direct X 10? (When?)

[Le_Petit_Lapin]

Anyone happen to know if theres a set time for new Direct X 10 graphics cards being made available, or is no information available at the minute and no dates finalised?

I need to get a replacement GPU, this ones gone a bit dodgy after a overclocking attempt that went wrong when the cooler came off (dont ask... ), and was wondering if DirectX 10 is coming soon. If its not long I'll just wait before replacing the Graphics card.

Cheers!

DX10 cards will probably be out Q1 2007 or closer to Vista release. Are you planning on upgrading to Vista because if not just get the best card at the moment.

upgrade to Vista as sson as it comes out?

No thanks, I like stability, and am not a fan of being a "beta" tester for an OS, cheers all the same Microsoft. I'll be waiting for the first Service Pack for it to come out before I even consider the damn thing, to see what other peoples opinions and experiences of the thing are first.

So, DirextX 10 is only compatible with Vista, yes?

If so....I see OCUK has a nice little bunble going on a Intel Core 2 DUO that I might take avantage of at the same time. I'm currently only on AGP and DDRI , so I'll need to step up to DDRII and PCI-X soon anyway.

Didn't think about it tbh.
