    hi guys,

    how's your experience with arkham city on the m15x, especially with dx11 on after the patch was released?
    my rig still has terrible performance with dx11 on :(

    I havent tried yet (with the DX11 patch), installed it, but had to have some 'wfie time' so could not play it last night.

    I only recieved the game 5-6 days ago, so did not even bother with DX11 mode. Will give it a go tonight and use the inbuilt benchmarks to see what it says...

    From what I've heard the game doesn't like to run well on dx11 regardless of what card you have. Better off not playing it in dx11 mode (which sucks).

    the dx11 patch that was released yesterday was supposed to fix the dx11 issues
    still bad performance on mine tho. hopefully future patches will resolve the issue
