Description

OpenGL is a 3D graphics API used for high-end graphics and animation. It can be used for games, screensavers, web graphics, etc. It uses the new 3D video cards' ability to render graphics very quickly. This is often called "hardware acceleration". And in case you were wondering, GL stands for Graphics Library.

Without OpenGL many of the latest video games would not run, or would run very slowly. OpenGL combined with your video card will accelerate graphics a considerable amount, and allows a higher level of visual quality.

Most computers will already include OpenGL runtime drivers which will allow you to run programs that require it. But if you think that you might need new drivers because you can't run certain programs or games, then you can try downloading GLSetup. It will check for new drivers on the internet and download them specifically for your video card if necessary. You should also get the latest drivers for your video card. They can usually be found on the maker's website.
