Depends on what your criteria for "power" and "game performance" are. DirectX is most likely faster and offers more feature (SDL does only 2D, after all). But SDL is certainly easier to use.

Unlimited power means nothing if you don't have the skill to use it. Your past few threads were all about you looking for alternatives, and sound to me like you are trying to avoid sitting down and actually learning the stuff.
