Is the 9800GT several GPU gens older and DX9 level in terms of features?

9800GT goes as far as DX10.1 officially. The XBox 360 has a superset of Direct x9.0c, a mythical Direct X9.0d if you will. Some direct X 11 features can run on DX10 level hardware but its not as fast as native DX11 hardware.

DX9 to DX10/11 is a bigger step than DX10 to DX11 though. What about GPU gens, how many between 9800GT and a 5550 HD?
