Mac computers that use OpenCL and OpenGL graphics
Applications in macOS can use OpenCL and OpenGL to take full advantage of the modern graphics processor (GPU) in your Mac. Learn about the OpenGL and OpenCL versions that your Mac supports.
The tables below list the OpenCL and OpenGL versions that Mac computers support.
Each GPU's hardware capabilities determine the version of OpenCL or OpenGL that's supported. Some GPUs don't support OpenCL and are noted with —. Some applications might have specific version requirements.
