As well as looking like being the operating system that Vista should always have been in terms of ease of use and desktop performance, Windows 7 will also bring with it a new version of, Microsoft's gaming API, DirectX and today we got our first brief glimpse of just what we can expect from this upgrade.
During its Computex press conference AMD showed a brief demo of a figure being rendered in realtime on DirectX11 (DX11) hardware. It was very short but revealing (no, not like that).

Essentially, the big things to look out for when DX11arrives are tesselation (the main aspect that was being demonstrated by the above demo), compute shaders, multithreading, and HDR compression.
