Hi Axel,
re:

Well that's what the graphics card companies want you to think but no it's not really the case.
The GPU vendors have special "CAD" editions but usually the "CAD" hardware is exactly the same as the "Gaming" hardware and the main difference (aside from a much higher price) is that they give you a better quality OpenGL driver on the CAD version.
That's why MOI doesn't use OpenGL by default for Windows.
By default MOI uses the Direct3D interface that is also used by most games. The GPU vendors don't play this "intentionally poor driver" upsell tactic with the Direct3D drivers.
If you are going to be using other CAD programs that do use OpenGL then it may be helpful to get the CAD version.
