Since DX11 is required for >8bit output thats the option Im interested in. Is there any general commentary on the DX11 setting in practical use?

Testing on Win 10 x64 is showing many presentation glitches if the present frame for each Vysnc is not enabled. This is with my setup being Nvidia GTX 960, UHD 4K display through HDMI 60 FPS.

Thanks
Yes, if you enable DX11 overlay is never used. You can verify this in the OSD.

DX11 works well on my system, slightly more responsive than DX9 or overlay with similar performance (I am also using Win10 x64 but with a Nvidia GTX 980 Ti). I also need present frame for each Vsync enabled. Both DX11 and full screen exclusive are required for 10 bit output. Don't forget to change the bit-depth in the display's properties as well.

Yes, it does not apply for Windows 8 or 10. Desktop composition cannot be disabled on Windows 8 or 10.
