  3. Computer performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_performance

    In computing, computer performance is the amount of useful work accomplished by a computer system. Outside of specific contexts, computer performance is estimated in terms of accuracy, efficiency and speed of executing computer program instructions. When it comes to high computer performance, one or more of the following factors might be involved:

  4. General-purpose computing on graphics processing units

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General-purpose_computing...

    Because the GPU has access to every draw operation, it can analyze data in these forms quickly, whereas a CPU must poll every pixel or data element much more slowly, as the speed of access between a CPU and its larger pool of random-access memory (or in an even worse case, a hard drive) is slower than GPUs and video cards, which typically ...

  5. Performance per watt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance_per_watt

    The red crosses denote the most power efficient computer, while the blue ones denote the computer ranked#500. FLOPS per watt is a common measure. Like the FLOPS ( Floating Point Operations Per Second) metric it is based on, the metric is usually applied to scientific computing and simulations involving many floating point calculations.

    Built using commercially available parts. Three AMD RX Vega 64 graphics cards provide just over 75 TFLOPS half precision (38 TFLOPS SP or 2.6 TFLOPS DP when combined with the CPU) at ~$2,050 for the complete system.

  7. Frame rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_rate

    Frame rate, most commonly expressed in frames per second or FPS, is typically the frequency (rate) at which consecutive images are captured or displayed. This definition applies to film and video cameras , computer animation , and motion capture systems.

  8. List of interface bit rates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_interface_bit_rates

    Some other computer architectures use different modules with a different bus width. In a single-channel configuration, only one module at a time can transfer information to the CPU. In multi-channel configurations, multiple modules can transfer information to the CPU at the same time, in parallel.

  9. Graphics processing unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_processing_unit

    Components of a GPU. A graphics processing unit (GPU) is a specialized electronic circuit initially designed for digital image processing and to accelerate computer graphics, being present either as a discrete video card or embedded on motherboards, mobile phones, personal computers, workstations, and game consoles.
