    Hey Guys,
    Wondering if I should bother upgrading to Parallels 12. I use Steam for gaming on my mac and wanted to get some "windows only" games going. Some require OpenGL 3.2 and above and currently (as you all know) parallels 11 only supports 2.1.

    Does anyone know what version of OpenGL is supported in Parallels 12?

    How can I find that info? I'm in windows 10 64bit. Only settings I see in the parallels settings are for DX10 (still). Very disappointed from that aspect of things. How can I tell what OpenGL is supported?

    It is OpenGL 2.1; If you need higher than OpenGL 2.1 move over to VMWare 8+.
