Directx 12 questions.

I have configured a cosmos III and I am happy with the specs, but I am confused why it is the only model with directx 12. Will it work with windows 8? Or will I have to wait till windows 10 comes out?

DX12 will only be available with Windows 10.
The Cosmos III isn't the only laptop with a GPU that is supposed to fully support DX12.
It seems some aspects of DX12 will work with non-DX12 specified GPUs, but that others won't. What will and won't we don't know yet.

So what should I do? Should I buy it now and if I do will it play games properly?

It is backward compatible so it will play all games at DX11 or even DX9 for the older games just fine.
It is just DX12 ready so when DX12 is out with Windows10 then it will work
