The only thing that DX11 brings to the table that DX10 doesn't is improved shaders and tesselation. That's it. Nothing that you will actually notice considerably...

See: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/wind ... directx-11
and
http://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/tessellation.html

Basically, you're getting improved polygons and MGPUHT (Multi-GPU-Hyper-Threading), which only is taken advantage of if you run a dual-core or more video card or have an SLI or xFire setup.
