Okay, I see that DX tells what can (hopefully) actually be done in HW. And maybe MS offered tools for easier programming to the game devs. But even then if a game needs DX9 for best display then it should work with any DX9 card absolutely independent of chip/card brand.
edit: Oh, damn nerdish behavior. Posting on xmas here. Even though I "have a life".
It's christmas so merry xmas to you folks!
