Note this does not mean a card that runs DX9, this means a card that fully supports hardware DX9 features.

Um...this is tricky, as my card (FX5600) supposedly doesn't properly support Dx9 (i.e. is a botch-job), despite the label on the tin (so to speak).

Durons are supposed to be 266 FSB (though mine won't go past 213 without locking up)

Well, i think so, but I'm not sure whether it's worthy of the term 'support'.  I need to read up and check...I can't really remember the details - I think the allegation was that the hardware support wasn't worth a damn, and it was having to be hacked in via the programmable pipeline and with game-specific drivers.

2 different models of the duron. older ones used 100mhz FSB and the newer ones run anywhere from 200-266Mhz FSB.

I'm running a GF2 MX card, so someone else can do the math.

GF4MX here, so I only support DX7 fully.  Saw something about vertex shaders one time, but no pixel shaders. :(

I think the GF4MX supports DX8.1 but no higher than that, if not, I've posted the wrong poll entry ;)

GF2 GTS on my main gaming machine.

I currently have a GF3 which only goes up to DX8 but will be upgrading in a week or two (probably to a R9800 pro 256).

GeForce 5200 FX.  Tell me, I'm not sure.  I says DX9, but someone said that the 5600 didn't fully support it...
For great justice.
