Enabling DirectX10 has a impact upon performance. Again the Gamer level seems to be the perfect choice and depending resolution, you can enjoy really high frame rates.

We compare the Inno3D GTX275 OC with various other graphics cards. At 1280x1024, the tested card is very close to the GTX285 series:
At 1680x1050, both the GTX285 and GTX 275 are still very close:
Finally at 1920x1200 the GTX285 is slightly faster..
The DirectX10 rendering mode seems to be harder for all the cards to handle.
At 1280x1024 we see a clear advantage of the GTX285 series over the GTX275, but only at the Performance/Mainstream quality levels.
The situation is the same at 1680x1050 & 1920x1200. The GTX285 series is better only when you choose the Performance/Mainstream detail levels. If you set the equality settings lower, the two cards will give you the same performance.
