If does look awesome though
I believe that in the video Ryan/Imago-Quem said that you can set it to higher or lower settings. The higher settings do not decrease performance at all..so there will be no difference between 1.0 and 3.0 performance wise, but the lower settings increase performance if you want to set it to them.

Pretty much any average video card uses Shader 3.0. All DX9 cards can use it and I believe he said that you can choose if you want 1.0 instead of 3.0 so it's not required.
