DirectX 10 Update for Call of Juarez

Theo Valich from our lovely rumor mill number one TheInquirer got aware of a soon to be released DirectX 10 Update for Call of Juarez. The exact release date has not been disclosed yet but a special DirectX 10 Benchmark based on the game will be released during the next weeks. It's been some days ago that we already reported about this certain benchmark application based on CoJ, back then it was closely related to AMDs upcoming R600 cards. It's therefore very likely that the patch and benchmark will be made official by May 14th, the launch day of AMDs R600 lineup.

The odds are against you on this one: A) For now, DirectX 10 is Vista-only. B) Direct X9 cards are not capable of utilizing Direct X10.

Just to repeat, someone ALWAYS asks.

To play this, you will need an Nvidia 8x00 card (8800, 8500 etc) an ATI X2900XT or XTX card, and vista.

Despite many people arguing this, its NOT possible at this moment in time, except with those combinations. (In the future, who knows)
