Windows 10 VGA graphics card FCAT performance benchmarks
After posting our benchmark item on Windows 8.1 vs Windows 10 benchmark performance a question raised in our forums. If we can do some FCAT results.
A valid question as multi-threaded optimization's might close down the frame latency gap even further. Now as the results below show, there hardly is a difference. Windows 10 from the ground up is Windows 8.1 in another jacket. Only once DX12 games will hit the street you'll be able to see some real differences in terms of scene complexity etc.
But the answer the question, sure we can run some FCAT benchmarks, see below. This one is for the true Gurus and latency afficinado's of course. If you like to learn what FCAT frametime analysis is, have a peek at this article.

No, the real question is why won't you upgrade, considering it's free?
That really rise the question why won't they release DX12 for Windows 8.1?

But not at fps expense. For example every new Ipad got better HW, so they add new effects. At end, it looks better, but fps still badly fluctuate. At least here on PC we can have graphic settings in games.
I'm hoping for a DX12 patch for Witcher 3!! That would make my day... no my year!

Because DX and WDDM are tied together and WDDM drives the entire display system, for graphics, movies, sound, DWM, etc. Could they back port it? Sure, but it would require a bunch of engineers to do it and a bunch of Q/A people to test it on a ton of different configurations.
Easier + more profitable to just get you to buy/download the newest OS.
