A workshop presented by the ELITE Consultants at Vogel Library.

GPU

A GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) handles graphics and video processing, working alongside the CPU. It can process many data values simultaneously and has its own dedicated memory (VRAM) for storing code and data. Generally, more GPU memory improves efficiency, though performance also depends on its design, purpose, and compatibility with other components.
