Some of the differences can be seen in the feature comparison table on this page:

Note things like "Shader Model", "Max Texture Dimension" and "Max Primitive Count".

These are a few of the reasons why full DX11 support is very hard to integrate with DX9 support.

@Buchon - thanks for the detailed explanation. I admit some of it falls outside my immediate comprehension, but it gives me an idea of the challenges faced by the devs when they try to produce a product that looks good on all PC operating systems.

@ Colander - great link; got it bookmarked. Dovetails well with Buchon's posts on the complexities involved with working with the different graphic capabilities of our PC systems.
