I've heard a few complaints about performance, but... my guess is that it is no worse that Java and Java is usable for game development. Not to mention that with the Mono project C# is portable to Linux and IIRC Mac OS although you aren't likely to find DirectX on those two platforms :-) Are there any particular worries you have about C#? I'm sure that if you post more specific questions you'll get more detailed answers.
