When a new DX is released it has features that take years to get to OGL, though OGL has surpassed it at times usually only several years after. is there a utility like Nvidia inspector to tinker with Open GL settings to squeeze every frame rate and graphics quality.Īs an enduser there's little reason to be concerned with it. I'm seriously thinking I had a bias against OpenGL but Open GL with the new vulkan seems like a decent system to play games.

I hope you chose OpenGL, as that's what I will be teaching. So now you know what separates DirectX and OpenGL, and hopefully you haveĬhosen based on facts which you would prefer, not on myths or opinions. There are differences in how each API handles how vertices are combined to form primitives, which are laid out below. Graphics primitives, such as points, lines, and triangles, are defined as an ordered set of vertices. This is the same pipeline that has been used in computer games since the early days of computer graphics.īoth OpenGL and DirectX describe vertices as a set of data consisting of coordinates in space that define the vertex location and any other vertex related data. When it comes to graphics capabilities, both APIs rely on the use of the traditional graphics pipeline. If you need to develop for more than Windows, OpenGL is the way to go. One major difference is that OpenGL is cross-platform, and DirectX is available only on Windows and XBox. So what aspect of OpenGL sets it apart from the DirectX graphics component?
On the other hand, OpenGL is strictly a graphics API. DirectX supports sound, music, input, networking, and multimedia. Perhaps the most obvious difference is that DirectX, as opposed to OpenGL, is more than just a graphics API.
