It’s surprising how some marketing trends change.
Back a few years ago in DirectX 9.0c prime, nobody ever said “This game requires DX9.0c support”. Everyone always said “This game requires Pixel Shader 3.0 support”.
It says NOWHERE that a game requires Pixel Shader 5.0. Instead it’s that it requires DirectX 11.
ask-jade-shine said: Well, the thing is that the earlier versions of DX9 used version 2 of the shader, then switched to version 3 in 9c. 10 and 11 both used version 4 and 5 respectively. So you need to be careful with DX9 cards because some may not have had the v3 shader
