As viewers of the recent Cataclysm beta videos might have noticed, Blizzard has been making small upgrades to the game engine. What you may not know is that Blizzard actually polls your system to get a good feeling of how gamers upgrade their hardware. Therefore, it is probably a safe bet that if your computer can’t handle the new improvements, you are behind the times buddy!

The more recent beta Cataclysm builds have added Experimental DirectX 11 support. This can be enabled by adding `SET gxApi “d3d11″` to your config.wtf. If you don’t have beta access though, you are in luck. The guys over at PC Games Hardware have some side-by-side shots of the expansion for your viewing.
