    DX 11 vs DX12 - Image Quality

    Anyone notice that image quality and graphics are slightly superior under DX 12 vs DX 11 on every setting maxed?

    Performance is inferior in DX 12

    Am i imagining or is it the case that graphics are slightly better under DX12?

    I think on strong hardware, DX12 runs great and looks slightly better. When I was running my old GTX980's in SLI, DX12 was extremely buggy but my new PC with a pair of 2080ti's run awesome at 4k / 60fps (vsync locked to monitor).

    I haven't been able to run DX12 without regular crashes. 1080ti with Intel 6850k on 4k LG OLED screen. Possible it's because I'm running Skip Ahead Insider builds, but DX11 is fine with same settings.

    I suspect it was an Nvidia update that caused this. I used to run DX12 on then updated and got crashes. DX12 off and runs fine even after latest Nvidia update.

    DX12 is better than DX11, if u have two PC, one is some yrs ago,u will find how DX12 is running more powerful than DX11. and ubisoft made the game running under DX12 is so good to me, i can't run it at BF1. DX12 got more effect than DX11 and muti core CPU more efficient(u can google it for more info).

    currently, i am running it at DX12
