AMD Exec Says DirectX Getting in the Way

“AMD worldwide developer relations manager of graphics Richard Huddy has blamed Microsoft’s DirectX and its APIs for limiting the potential of GPUs in PCs. ‘We often have at least ten times as much horsepower as an Xbox 360 or a PS3 in a high-end graphics card, yet it’s very clear that the games don’t look ten times as good. To a significant extent, that’s because… DirectX is getting in the way.'”
