Well some people told me that is faster but glitchy.

Well then it should be faster in frames but not speed!

Depends on the game and/or settings. But with most games directx is at least twice as fast as opengl (also depends on what video card brand you have).

OpenGL is 2-3x slower with new revisions. There is little reason to use it over dx9 unless your card is weak or the game just wont run properly under directx plugin.
DX9/10 looks better and is faster.

Loook D3D is way faster, so far I'm playing NSCN3 with only the issues of special going black, but sometimes they appear just right. I'm using stable version this in my system spec:

ntel Core 2 Quad Q8200 @ 2.33GHz
4.0GB Dual-Channel DDR2 @ 666MHz
Acer AL2216W @ 1680x1050
ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series
977GB Western Digital WDC WD10EADS-65M2B0 ATA Device
977GB Western Digital WDC WD10EADS-65M2B0 ATA Device

I bought a controller yesterday and few wii games, is running just awesome, but honestly I wish the specials attack of NSCN3 thing get fixed soon.

My configuration
