That's for all old DirectX9 games? I understand the problem then. Yeah that sounds like that's on AMD.
Not all DX9 games, but all that use the particular DX9 function that is causing the issue. There's more than one way to skin a cat, so to speak, so not all DX9 games would use the function causing the problem, even if they do have reflections. Still, one has to assume that there are other DX9 functions not being supported as well by these cards.
Personally, I play a lot of older games, even ones no longer being actively supported and expanded on by their developers; there is no way I'd saddle myself with a GPU that thinks it is okay to just decide not to provide support for those games. I have a newer GPU from Nvidia and I can still play games from circa Y2K without issues. I have yet to have an older game not work properly. To me, that's as important as performance when choosing a GPU.
