  2. Video random-access memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_random-access_memory

    GDDR5X SDRAM on an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics card. Video random-access memory (VRAM) is dedicated computer memory used to store the pixels and other graphics data as a framebuffer to be rendered on a computer monitor. [1] It often uses a different technology than other computer memory, in order to be read quickly for display on a screen.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_card

    Graphics cards are sometimes called discrete or dedicated graphics cards to emphasize their distinction to an integrated graphics processor on the motherboard or the central processing unit (CPU). A graphics processing unit (GPU) that performs the necessary computations is the main component in a graphics card, but the acronym "GPU" is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_hardware

    A dedicated graphics card has its own RAM and Processor for generating its images and does not slow down the computer. Dedicated graphics cards also have higher performance than integrated graphics cards. It is possible to have both [2] dedicated and integrated graphics, however once a dedicated graphics card is installed, the integrated card ...

  5. Graphics processing unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_processing_unit

    Dedicated graphics processing units uses RAM that is dedicated to the GPU rather than relying on the computer’s main system memory. This RAM is usually specially selected for the expected serial workload of the graphics card (see GDDR).

  6. GDDR7 SDRAM - Wikipedia

    Graphics Double Data Rate 7 Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory (GDDR7 SDRAM) is a type of synchronous graphics random-access memory (SGRAM) specified by the JEDEC Semiconductor Memory Standard, with a high bandwidth, "double data rate" interface, designed for use in graphics cards, game consoles, and high-performance computing.

  7. Hardware overlay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_overlay

    A computer draws on its display by writing a bitmapped representation of the graphics into a special portion of its memory known as video memory. Without any hardware overlays, only one chunk of video memory exists which all applications must share - and the location of a given application's video memory moves whenever the user changes the ...

    Despite the constant development in key components including; CPU, GPU, memory, and wireless access technologies; mobile devices need to be portable and energy efficient. Mobile cloud computing is the combination of cloud computing and mobile computing, in which mobile devices perform computation offloading to balance the power of the cloud for ...

  9. GPU switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPU_switching

    Also known as: discrete graphics cards. 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 ...
