Just a quick question. Thinking of buying a laptop with an: ATI Radeon HD 4530 Graphics card. Does this support the new Direct X10?

Well technically no. Added features to 10. But the card is backward compatible.

Matty you do know that the 4530 wont be very good for gaming,certianly wont handle DX10 games that welll.

If you are into games, I suggest try ATI Radeon HD 5870, this is what I have on my computer and it really worth the money I spend in purchasing this card.

^ Read the thread, sir.

The 4530 does support 10.1, but the "new" directX is 11. Radeon 5000 series cards support it. Nvidia has some out as well, but I don't think there are any laptop cards yet.

He is looking for a laptop, not a desktop.
