Hello, Directx 9 runs better (performance wise) but doesn't look as good as DX 11.  DX 11 looks better but your pc gaming will take a small hit to it's performance.  There's no real huge difference between them to be honest.

 

I do have to add though that when SCS updates ATS and ETS2 to 1.36 they will both be using DX 11 (which means they are dropping DX 9)  of which mean you'll then have to have a graphics card that is capable of supporting DX 11.

 

Here's an interesting article you may want to read: https://www.eightforums.com/threads/directx-9-to-directx-11-which-runs-better.58841/

 

If you're not sure if your graphics card supports DX11 then follow these steps:

 

In Windows, open the search/start bar and type dxdiag, then select it from the results. The window that pops up shows you your DirectX version.

The location of the two green arrows will tell you what DirectX version you have.  If you have the number 9 or 10 you will have to upgrade your graphics card.

 

I sincerely hope that this information is helpful to you.

 

Regards
