The idea is not to return the exact videocard but a close match (a card supporting more or less the same opengl features or with similar performance). Based on test using the closed source drivers from nvidia and ati and also using the opensource radeon dri drivers, I made a list of what extensions are available on the cards. Further I checked which of the extensions indicate correspond to certain directx versions.
