DirectX Graphics Infrastructure (DXGI) is a kernel-mode component of Windows Vista which handles the low level jobs, such as enumerating the display devices, choosing buffer formats, displaying the rendered frames and managing hardware resources. It serves as an hardware abstraction for the kernel mode Windows Display Driver Model device driver.

Both Direct3D 10 and OpenGL applications in Windows Vista work through DXGI.
