Yes, this is mostly based on DX9 usage and performance. I have read a few times that nVidia really has not enabled much DX9 on their hardware, which is odd.
However, I'm not sure what you mean by 'the fx can run better'. Maybe you mean its just more tuned to older DirectX????
In any case, I have a 9800 Pro on hold. I've been a good little nVidia customer for a while and I suppose its time to lean the other way for a bit.
