So out of curiosity, I am wondering why OpenGL is not enabled when my GPU supports OpenGL 4.2. I have the latest drivers and OpenGL tests just fine on FurMark and other testing applications. OpenGl and OpenCl and DirectX11 are enabled . . . but SolidWorks does not recognize the GPU as OpenGL compatible, why is this. I know the easy answer to this question is " its not on the support list of SolidWorks website  . . . but why not, when it suppots OpenGL?

Intel 3970k 6 core 4.2GHz

64GB 2400 Ram

(x2 crossfire) AMD 7970 GPU OpenGL 4.2 OpenCL 1.2 DirectX11.1
