While Microsoft had always insisted that OpenGL was best used for "professional graphics," meaning CAD (Computer Aided Design) on the workstation, it was starting to see adoption in video games - an industry that Microsoft sought to dominate on the Windows platform with DirectX. OpenGL's bigges...
“Rezence” is a wireless feature that allows users to charge their Skylake based laptops, and wireless technologies for communication with various other peripherals. Skylake’s S variant supports integrated GPU with DirectX 12, OpenGL 4.4, and OpenCL 2.0, as well as video formats like VP9, VP8...
Reshadeis a software designed to “inject” a particular preset into your games by overriding the various shaders that games use to show off graphics. It works by latching onto OpenGL, its successor Vulkan, and Microsoft’s DirectX, and changing how a game looks from upping the saturation to...

0.7 newer version of OpenGL ? 4vs3.3 Scroll down for more details Why is Apple A9 better than Apple A8X? 200 MHz faster GPU clock speed ? 650 MHzvs450 MHz 4 nm smaller semiconductor size ? 16 nmvs20 nm 1 newer version of DirectX ...
Any game made in the last 20 years or so is going to use either DirectX or OpenGL to draw polygons using your graphics card[3]Yes, there are occasionally obscure examples that don’t use either, but let’s keep this simple.. I don’t care if the game looks like Crysis or Minecraft...
D3D9 is old and probably going to be slower than other backends. However, the new D3D11 on 12, translates DirectX11 calls to DirectX12 and while there is a slight overhead involved, it has the potential to be faster, due to the newer features of DX12. ...
Since Vulkan is on par with Direct3D 12, and both are much better (and faster) than older versions of Direct3D (as we saw whenwe compared DirectX 11 VS DirectX 12), "translating" old Direct3D games to Vulkan can sometimes improve the game's performance. Intel's work on their Arc GPUs...
