Nvidia’s ace in the hole against AMD: Maxwell is the first GPU with full DirectX 12 support

UE4 Elemental demo, powered by DX12

In addition to Nvidia's new Maxwell GPU having top-of-the-line performance and power efficiency, it has another feature that will probably make a lot more difference in the real world: It's the first GPU to offer full support for Microsoft's upcoming DirectX 12 and Direct3D 12 graphics APIs. According to Microsoft, it has worked with Nvidia engineers in a "zero-latency environment" for several months to get DX12 support baked into Maxwell and graphics drivers. Even more importantly, Microsoft then worked with Epic to get DirectX 12 support baked into Unreal Engine 4, and to build a tech demo of Fable Legends that uses DX12.
