I don't know all that much about graphics, but (Jedi-)SDL is a great 2D 
and 3D library that uses OpenGL. It can also use other platform 
dependant graphic engines like DirectX on Windows. It is written in C++, 
but there are versions for Delphi and FPC. Unfortunatly it was never 
made compatible with TForm or to use with LCL or VCL components.
