Support for Microsoft Direct3D for Windows guests, which lets graphically-intensive Windows applications, including computer modeling and games software, run in a virtual environment
Support for the Open Graphics Library (OpenGL) 2.0 standard, which lets high-performance graphical apps run CAM-based software on VirtualBox
Additional support for a wide range of USB devices like iPods and phones.
