I am trying to use Vertex Array Objects in one of my programs, but it seems that my PC don't support this feature.

When I execute this function glewIsSupported("GL_ARB_vertex_array_object"), it returns false.

If I try to update my video driver, this could make Vertex Array Objects available?

How can I check wich OpenGL my videocard support?

Vertex Array Objects can be used starting with OpenGL 3.0?

  • The easiest way I know of to be able to tell what extensions are supported by some piece of hardware that you may or may not have is the [OpenGL extension viewer database](http://www.realtech-vr.com/glview/download.php). – Nicol Bolas Jan 02 '13 at 22:05

VAO - according to spec: http://www.opengl.org/registry/specs/ARB/vertex_array_object.txt are written against OpenGL 2.1.

In OpenGL 3.0 it is in official spec, so when GPU supports OGL 3.0 then VAO are for sure supported.

You can use http://www.ozone3d.net/gpu_caps_viewer/ to check all OGL extensions.

What GPU do you have?

Via chrome will not support new features from OpenGL 3.0 as you see
