DX11 support shows up for LucidLogix Hydra

jmke · 13th April 2010, 22:06

We told you about the MSI Big Bang Fuzion and how it worked at CES this year. We even followed up with a tidbit of information about LucidLogix demo at GDC this year. However one of the things that we have not touched on is DX11 support. When we last looked at Hydra we saw there were some issues with rendering DX10 textures and lighting, especially visible in 3DMark 2006 and 3DMarkVantage. So you can imagine that we were shocked to hear that Lucid is claiming full DX11 support with their latest drivers.

We asked MSI about this and have been told that they are confident the DX10 problems we saw have been resolved. This is good news and bodes well for the future of products with the Hydra chip on them.
