    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dell_Inspiron_1525

    The Dell Inspiron 1525 was a laptop with a 15.4-inch display released in 2008. [3] [4] It weighed approximately six pounds – half a pound lighter than the 1520. [5] This laptop can be considered a mid-range Dell computer, between the smaller Dell 1420 model and the more expensive XPS M1530 model. It featured a chassis with a new edge design ...

  3. GPU switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPU_switching

    A classic motherboard with on-board integrated graphics processors, a discrete graphics card can be installed at a PCI slot. GPU switching is a mechanism used on computers with multiple graphic controllers. This mechanism allows the user to either maximize the graphic performance or prolong battery life by switching between the graphic cards.

  4. Mobile PCI Express Module - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_PCI_Express_Module

    Mobile PCI Express Module (MXM) is an interconnect standard for GPUs (MXM Graphics Modules) in laptops using PCI Express created by MXM-SIG. The goal was to create a non-proprietary, industry standard socket, so one could easily upgrade the graphics processor in a laptop, without having to buy a whole new system or relying on proprietary vendor upgrades.

  5. PCI Express - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express

    A PCI Express card fits into a slot of its physical size or larger (with x16 as the largest used), but may not fit into a smaller PCI Express slot; for example, a x16 card may not fit into a x4 or x8 slot. Some slots use open-ended sockets to permit physically longer cards and negotiate the best available electrical and logical connection.

  6. Graphics card - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_card

    A modern consumer graphics card: A Radeon RX 6900 XT from AMD. A graphics card (also called a video card, display card, graphics accelerator, graphics adapter, VGA card/VGA, video adapter, display adapter, or colloquially GPU) is a computer expansion card that generates a feed of graphics output to a display device such as a monitor.

  7. Accelerated Graphics Port - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerated_Graphics_Port

    It is a technology used on motherboards made by ECS, intended to allow an existing AGP card to be used in a new motherboard instead of requiring a PCIe card to be obtained (since the introduction of PCIe graphics cards few motherboards provide AGP slots). An "AGP Express" slot is basically a PCI slot (with twice the electrical power) with an ...

  8. Peripheral Component Interconnect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_Component...

    The M66EN pin is an additional ground on 5 V PCI buses found in most PC motherboards. Cards and motherboards that do not support 66 MHz operation also ground this pin. If all participants support 66 MHz operation, a pull-up resistor on the motherboard raises this signal high and 66 MHz operation is enabled.

  9. Expansion card - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_card

    In computing, an expansion card (also called an expansion board, adapter card, peripheral card or accessory card) is a printed circuit board that can be inserted into an electrical connector, or expansion slot (also referred to as a bus slot) on a computer's motherboard (see also backplane) to add functionality to a computer system. Sometimes ...
