Directx Latest Extra Quality -
The latest iteration of hardware-accelerated ray tracing. It adds support for inline ray tracing (giving developers finer control over shaders) and execution reordering, which improves performance by grouping similar ray operations together. This enables more realistic lighting, reflections, and shadows in real time.
These updates have already been adopted by a number of game developers, with titles like and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare leveraging DirectX 12 Ultimate's capabilities.

Currently, users have no easy way to verify if their system supports the latest DirectX 12 Ultimate features (such as Ray Tracing, VRS, or Mesh Shaders) or to troubleshoot shader compilation stutters. Information is hidden in legacy tools (dxdiag), and driver settings are split between NVIDIA/AMD control panels.
As of early 2026, Microsoft has not announced a DirectX 13. Instead, the company is evolving DirectX 12 through incremental updates. These SDKs allow developers to access new features immediately without requiring a full Windows OS upgrade. Recent Agility SDKs (e.g., 1.710+ previews) have focused on:

Thanks for the decks, so useful
Our pleasure Rachel, hope you enjoy studying them
Just upvoted the ones I use, great resource. Thanks for taking the time

You can email [email protected] to report the errors with the decks and our team will edit them.
Appreciate the heads up 🙂
