Frequently asked questions
Technically, OpenGL is not a renderer, but a graphics API that gives you tools to create a renderer. You use OpenGL to send rendering instructions to the GPU, but you must write your own renderer logic (lighting, shadows, etc.).
Steps to draw a basic 3D object in OpenGL: Define vertices of the object (e.g. cube, sphere) Use Vertex Buffer Objects (VBOs) and Vertex Array Objects (VAOs) Write vertex and fragment shaders (GLSL) Apply transformation matrices (model, view, projection) Enable depth testing for proper 3D rende
Top choices for 3D rendering (as of 2025): NVIDIA RTX 4090 / 4080 – Best for ray tracing and real-time rendering AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX – Powerful and cost-effective alternative NVIDIA Quadro / RTX A-series – Ideal for professional 3D applications (e.g. Blender, Maya)
Yes — OpenGL excels at 3D rendering. It provides a low-level, cross-platform API to draw 3D graphics using vertices, shaders, textures, and lighting. It's widely used in games, simulations, and graphics engines.
