This week in ISM3004 we learned about various computer parts on the personal computer. One of the parts I love to use is the graphics processing unit, or GPU. The GPU is a specialized microprocessor that offloads and accelerates 3D or 2D graphics and can be found on most computers. In addition, mobile phones and game consoles have a GPU as well.
This is one of my favorite features because it allows me to watch videos. The GPU is different in every system. The video quality is worse in my HP Mini than it is in my Dell. I even watch videos on my Blackberry.
Part of the video components of a computer is the resolution. If your system has more pixels, it has a clearer picture. These components are ideal for video watching. To view a history and learn more about the GPU click here.
