    The PCMark Suite is a collection of various single- and multi-threaded CPU, Graphics and HDD test sets with the focus on Windows Vista application tests. Consumer Scenario Suites are pre-defined selections of test sets that measure the system’s performance in respective Windows Vista Consumer Scenarios.

  3. GPU switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPU_switching

    Unlike integrated graphics, dedicated graphics cards have much more processing units and have its own RAM with much higher memory bandwidth. In some cases, a dedicated graphics chip can be integrated onto the motherboards, B150-GP104 for example. Regardless of the fact that the graphics chip is integrated, it is still counted as a dedicated ...

  4. Sysbench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sysbench

    Sysbench can run benchmark tests specified in command line flags or in shell scripts. The type of test to run is specified in the command options and would be one of: cpu: CPU performance test; fileio: File I/O test; memory: Memory speed test; mutex: Mutex performance test; threads: Threads subsystem performance test

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_processing_unit

    Since GPU computations are memory-intensive, integrated processing may compete with the CPU for relatively slow system RAM, as it has minimal or no dedicated video memory. IGPs use system memory with bandwidth up to a current maximum of 128 GB/s, whereas a discrete graphics card may have a bandwidth of more than 1000 GB/s between its VRAM and ...

    time (Unix) - can be used to determine the run time of a program, separately counting user time vs. system time, and CPU time vs. clock time. [1] timem (Unix) - can be used to determine the wall-clock time, CPU time, and CPU utilization similar to time (Unix) but supports numerous extensions.

  7. Shared graphics memory - Wikipedia

    Graphics display was facilitated by the use of an expansion card with its own memory plugged into an ISA slot. The first IBM PC to use the SMA was the IBM PCjr, released in 1984. Video memory was shared with the first 128 KiB of RAM. The exact size of the video memory could be reconfigured by software to meet the needs of the current program.

  8. General-purpose computing on graphics processing units

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

    Some very heavily optimized pipelines have yielded speed increases of several hundred times the original CPU-based pipeline on one high-use task. A simple example would be a GPU program that collects data about average lighting values as it renders some view from either a camera or a computer graphics program back to the main program on the CPU ...

  9. Nvidia Optimus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia_Optimus

    Nvidia Optimus is a computer GPU switching technology created by Nvidia which, depending on the resource load generated by client software applications, will seamlessly switch between two graphics adapters within a computer system in order to provide either maximum performance or minimum power draw from the system's graphics rendering hardware.
