it depends basicaly wich one will have better performance on your machine.
Your video card have a specific hardware to run this kind of code, and if you know
which specific hardware have your video card it will be the decision.
Normally the typical (non profesional cards) work fine with both, but
OpenGL it's focused to high-level workstations, and Silicon Graphics...
A good card to render OpenGL it's everytime su much expensive
(like $350 US).
I think if you don't bought a specific graphics card, you can use
without problems DirectX (although it's Microsoft's)
