Best DXLevel for GMod - KatNotDinner - 04-11-2012

Hey guys. I want your advice on setting DX level.
I used to mess with DX levels before and played on dx 10.1 but I crashed frequently (My video card fully supports dx 10.1 and SM 4.1 ).
Then I put this in my launch option "-dxlevel 90" but i heard that this command will use SM 2.0. I also heard that changing the argument to 95 will run with SM 3 and changing it to 98 will run SM 4. Can you point out which dx level is the best?

Well I have tried DX 8 but my video card supports much higher dx level and I crash for stupid reasons like "Lua error dump" or I have many graphical glitches.
Also you have a powerful PC. Why do you use DX 8?

Because Garry's Mod crashes a lot less when joining when using DX8.
