Together with the company Microsoft DirectX 12 and is going to release version of DirectX 11.3, which will offer a new graphics rendering functions, but will not be able to help reduce the CPU load.
This update looks pretty weird, but it seems that Microsoft wants to make the old, good trick and DirectX 12 to make available only the new operating system Windows 9, while DirectX 11.3 will be available for all other platforms. Similarly, attempts to encourage the transition to the new OS users who hangs on Windows 7th
It is important to note that the new features will be maintained at all modern graphics adapters. Microsoft still does not reveal all the new features list and it is not clear what kind of hardware will require full disclosure of the new API functionality.
Both DirectX 12 and DirectX 11.3 and should appear in 2015. at the end. It is likely that by the time we find out more information about the new API capabilities.
