The GeForce GTX 280 was a high-end graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on June 16th, 2008. Built on the 65 nm process, and based on the GT200 graphics processor, in its G200-300-A2 variant, the card supports DirectX 11.1. Even though it supports DirectX 11, the feature level is only 10_0, which can be problematic with many DirectX 11 & DirectX 12 titles.
