thatвЂ™s because OpenGL is not just software it is also hardware and since it so directly tied to hardware it essentially becomes a hardware spec. I get OpenGL 3.0 on my desktop but not on my netbook? Why is that? No! But вЂ¦ but вЂ¦ but OpenGL is cross platform right? Then why does my latest netbook not have OpenGL 3.0?вЂ¦.

#OPENGL 4.3 COMPATIBLE GRAPHICS CARD LIST INSTALL#

Can you have OpenGL 3.0 on Intel GMA on netbooks? I can install the same Xubuntu 9.04 on my netbook and on my Desktop with GTX 250. Linux, FreeBSD can be ported to netbooks today that have dinky on-board graphics chips. Can you implement OpenGL 3.0 on Intel on-board graphics cards? Not by a long shot! nor can you implement it on *any* platform out there.

OpenGL is a harware and a software spec and since it is tied directly to the underlying hardware it essentially becomes a hardware spec. susheel 7 at I am talking in the context of OpenGL.Platforms like iPhone and PS3s (PSGL2) have long since moved to OpenGL ES (which is not OpenGL).

(scroll down and look at SinbadвЂ™s comment).Д¬an you tell me how many вЂњplatformsвЂќ have full OpenGL 3.0 support as yet? No donвЂ™t give me names your favourite Linux, FreeBSD distro, they are OSes and not platforms. That said have you tried running a platform like Ogre3D using both APIs? You will be surprised by the results!

#OPENGL 4.3 COMPATIBLE GRAPHICS CARD LIST DRIVERS#

OpenGL and Direct3D are вЂњAPIsвЂќ ie they are interfaces to hardware and have equivalent performance for given hardware if the drivers are implemented properly. OpenGL performance lags behind Direct3D! You have any proof of that? The only difference was, the functions were available as extensions.вЂќ So it isnвЂ™t a big deal to move them up to spec level for Dey The gist of my comment for those who have difficulty understanding, let me repeat, вЂњsame functionality was available under OpenGL for a long time now. вЂ¦ And to put a stress on what poster called вЂњyesвЂќ said, I added that OpenGL 3.2 supports mostly all of DirectX10 level functionality and is not lacking in anyway. As far as ATI goes, they havenвЂ™t even released 3.1 drivers as yet. Most of the things that were included in the 3.2 spec were already available as extensions under Nvidia drivers for like 6 months or more now. I used the words вЂњDirectX10 classвЂќ GPUs to stress upon the type of hardware. I bet you saw directx and started to flame?

NVIDIA Display Drivers 190.56 with OpenGL 3.2 Support And New OpenGL ExtensionsДid you guys even read what I said.

OpenGL 3.2 Core profile Specification (PDF).

The other extensions should be available soon in NVIDIA / AMD graphics drivers. Some of these features are already supported by NVIDIA / AMD display drivers (like GL_ARB_geometry_shader4, GL_EXT_provoking_vertex or GL_EXT_vertex_array_bgra in Forceware 190.15).

Geometry shaders (GL_ARB_geometry_shader4).

Fragment depth clamping (GL_ARB_depth_clamp).

Multisampled textures and texture samplers for specific sample locations (GL_ARB_texture_multisample).

Seamless cube map filtering (GL_ARB_seamless_cube_map).

Provoking vertex control (GL_ARB_provoking_vertex).

Shader fragment coordinate convention control (GL_ARB_fragment_coord_conventions).

Drawing commands allowing modification of the base vertex index (GL_ARB_draw_elements_base_vertex).

BGRA vertex component ordering (GL_ARB_vertex_array_bgra).

Introduction of core and compatibility profiles, superseding the GL_ARB_compatibility extension introduced with OpenGL 3.1.

I posted a news on OpenGL 3.2 few days ago and today, the Khronos Group announces the release of OpenGL 3.2.
