OPENGL 3.3–CAPABLE GRAPHICS CARD MAC FULL
NVIDIA provides full OpenGL 4.6 support and functionality on NVIDIA GeForce and Quadro graphics card with one of the following Turing, Volta, Pascal, Maxwell (first or second generation) or Kepler based GPUs:
OPENGL 3.3–CAPABLE GRAPHICS CARD MAC DRIVER
Windows driver version 426.02 and Linux driver version 418.52.18 provide new features for OpenGL developers to test their upcoming OpenGL applications.
OPENGL 3.3–CAPABLE GRAPHICS CARD MAC DRIVERS
OpenGL 4.6 support is available for Windows and Linux in our general release drivers available here: And hopefully soon.This page provides links to both general release drivers that support OpenGL 4.6, and developer beta drivers that support upcoming OpenGL features. But it is a given that the benefits of OpenGL 4.0 will filter down to OpenGL ES for iPhones, iPads, and smartphones, as well as the upcoming WebGL spec, meaning better graphics on all platforms.
OPENGL 3.3–CAPABLE GRAPHICS CARD MAC MAC OS X
Today, Mac OS X Leopard and Snow Leopard only support OpenGL 2.1 in full, and Snow Leopard only supports a subset of OpenGL 3.0. It is unknown exactly when Mac OS X users will see the benefits of OpenGL 4.0. Nvidia has already promised OpenGL 4.0 support for its upcoming Fermi-based graphics hardware, and competing graphics card maker ATI, as strong contributors and supporters of the spec, is highly likely to support it as well. That specification can also be found on the OpenGL registry. OpenGL 3.3 seeks to retrofit some features of the OpenGL 4.0 to run on today’s hardware.
But never fear, that’s what the OpenGL 3.3 specification is for. Granted, we won’t see OpenGL 4.0 supported until the next generation of graphics hardware hits the market, so even if you buy a new Mac today, you’re unlikely to see the benefits of all of OpenGL 4.0’s new features and improvements.
