Can I run windows 7 and dx11? please help..
January 24th, 2020
I want to know if I can run windows 7 and if my videocard supports dx11.
Pc Specifications:
Motherboard: Asus p5kc
Videocard: Nvidia Geforce 8800gt 512mb
Processor: Intel quad core (q6600) @ 2.4 GHz
Ram: 4gb
22” Samsung 226 bw monitor
I am currently using windows vista ultimate.
I think I can use windows 7, but I really don’t know if I can run DX11 with my videocard. I mean what if I update it?? You can update at nvidia.com Would it work then? or do I have to upgrade my videocard???
Thanks already!
The Nvidia Geforce 8800gt only supports DirectX 10 / OpenGL 2.1
the 8800 is directx10. updating drivers wont change it. ull need a new card for dx11. the only dx11 card out atm is the ati 5870 IIRC
You can normaly run windows 7 minimum spec: 1 GHz processor (32- or 64-bit)
1 GB of RAM (32-bit); 2 GB of RAM (64-bit)
16 GB of available disk space (32-bit); 20 GB of available disk space (64-bit)
DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver
Only you cant update your grafic card to dx11 only ati series 5… support dx11 I think.
I also have 8800gt
No, it doesn’t support dx11
Yes it runs windows 7 fine
there arn’t any dx11 games out anyway
You dont need it to support DX11 anyway that wont be used in a long time. Hell most new video games support DX9. If your card only supports Dx10 it will run on that. I have a Dx9 card and run Windows 7 fine with AERO on and transparency.
I have yet to see a game to run DX10 with any major changes. Even Crysis looks the same, stick with XP/Vista. I reccomend XP it is much more quicker and uses less system resources.

Always fun seeing people telling others to stick with a 10 year old operating system
You need to change your graphics card to a ATI Radeon HD 5750, 5770, 5850 or 5870 to run DirectX 11, there are no DirectX 11 games just yet, so I would wait until they come out if I were you.
And @ , that’s totally wrong, there’s a major difference between directx 9 and 10 especially in crysis. Crysis on XP looked nowhere near as good on vista/7.
Also 7 performs *slightly* better then vista with gaming.
If your a gamer using XP on a forum were vista and 7 is available, I am really shocked with disappointment. I mean come on, XP is 7 years old if not more.
You need to change your graphics card to a ATI Radeon HD 4750, 4770, 4850 or 4870 to run DirectX 11
Nope only ATI HD 5000 series can run Directx 11 for now (5870,5850,5770 for now)

Dont forget 5750
Yes, it looks 5750 is available on shops too.
All the new upcoming graphics card ‘ll have directx11.. win 7 supports 11th version but ur card isn’t..
i’ve got the hd5850 and you can apparently overclock it to the same specs as the hd5870 plus the hd5870 is like �100 more then the hd5850 but i haven’t tested overclocking stabilitys at that level. just read up on google you can,
