But i dont think that the early dx-11 cards wud be worth the wait :S .. esp after not-so-good results from gx-260 and gx-280 cards.

From my findings, DirectX 10's quality was significantly greater than those of DirectX 9.0c's. The only reason we don't see much difference is that Developers decided to make their content backwards compatible (to DirectX 9.0c and also to the Consoles), which didn't exploit its full potential. You can watch DirectX 10 exclusive demoes to get an idea of what I mean. As far as DirectX 11 is concerned, the main focus is on performance this time, so I'm expecting faster frame rates.
