Yes installing the
SDK with the
Dx runtime that is
included within it will do...
just make sure to install runtime if the SDK setup asks you weather you want to install runtime or not.
Redistributable and SDK are different things. |

The SDK contains the
runtimes as stated above and also was
said by modoran (
DirectX SDK includes DirectX runtime as a optional feature, but it not forces you to install. |
)
If you dont have the Runtimes installed any game that uses directx classes/functions/...etc will
NOT work on your PC
if you dont have the SDK you cant program games that use Directx
Microsoft includes the
Runtimes in the
SDK since it wont make since if you can program a game only to not be able to play it, test it or even run it once!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope that did not leave any unclear information. goodluck...
