9250 and up are DX9.
I think the DX9 issue is pretty much for the video. The feature was added to make it easy to add video to games. I'm sure lower cards could support it if the drivers do. I'm not sure what other DX9 only features they could use. DX8 will do any of the other stuff I've seen.

It was supposed to say 9550 and up are DirectX 9.
The 9500 is also but it was discontinued.
