These threads are getting ridiculous...mods should delete some posts, or make a sticky concerning the rough, hard facts about DX10.
Also: since updating to svn 239, I've seen _much_ better speeds with both GSdx10 and GSdx9 in FFX and Resident Evil 4. RE4 shot to ~90% speed with GSdx10...up from somewhere around 70%. Same type of increases for FFX
However, I noticed something wierd yesterday. Emulation speeds are high when the GS plugin res is set at 512x512, then drop a little at 1024x1024, and then speeds keep increasing as I move it up to 4096x4096. Shouldn't the opposite be true? It confuses me, but it's ok, since it plays great the higher you set it
