      Qt 5.3.1 for Windows 64-bit (VS 2013, OpenGL, 571 MB) uses standard OpenGL for rendering.
      Qt 5.3.1 for Windows 64-bit (VS 2013, 573 MB) uses "ANGLE":https://code.google.com/p/angleproject/, which converts OpenGL ES 2.0 calls to DirectX calls. Benefits - user do not need to install GPU vendor supplied drivers. Drawbacks - OpenGL functionality is limited to OpenGL ES 2.0

      More info: "Qt 5 on Windows ANGLE and OpenGL":http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt-5-on-Windows-ANGLE-and-OpenGL
