DirectX is an API used by developers to create multimedia software, namely video games, but also 3D editing or modeling applications. She is the one who oversees all video-related operations on your computer, and plays a crucial role in your computer’s performance. And precisely, it is about to receive a particularly interesting update.
This update, called “GPU Upload Heaps”, concerns DirectX 12. When one uses VRAM, the other has to wait patiently for its turn, which has a direct effect on PC performance.
DirectX 12 update will improve gaming performance on Windows 10/11
So that’s what changed with the DirectX 12 update. With it, both the CPU and the GPU will be able to use VRAM at the same time, eliminating hiccups. In other words, video games, but also all video or 3D creation software, should in theory experience a certain performance boost, without you having to do anything. The only thing you’ll have to do is update your graphics card drivers when they already have this update included.
