DirectX 10 Performance

Enthusiast Class

DirectX 10 performance on the two fastest video cards on the market, to be frank, shocked us. As you can see from the above graph, the GeForce 8800 Ultra and the GeForce 8800 GTX both failed to maintain framerates above 30 frames-per-second for a significant portion of our testing routine. Recall that we used the exact same settings as we did in our DX9 testing, and both of these video cards provided an excellent experience earlier. In DX10, though, neither of these video cards provided a playable experience with these settings with this patch.

We also see that the GeForce 8800 GTX is noticeably slower than the GeForce 8800 Ultra. In the results of our DirectX 9 testing shown above, we found that there was no noticeable performance difference at all between the two.

Performance Class

We saw more of the same downward trend with the Performance class of video cards we tested. The GeForce 8800 GTS 640 MB and GeForce 8800 GTS 320 MB again performed essentially the same as one another, while the ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT still remained far below them in performance. This time, however, LOTRO was not playable on any of these video cards, while using these settings.

Because it had the least room to wiggle, the ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT took the most severe performance hit when changed from DirectX 9 to DirectX 10. But it hardly matters, as the two NVIDIA cards didn’t fare much better with DX10 enabled with this patch.
