What is a Video Card?
A video card is also known as a graphics card, its a specialized hardware component of a computer that is responsible for processing and rendering visual information and displaying it on the screen with the help of the CPU. Their main task is to manipulate to pixels displayed on the screen. They modify the pixels from small text to explosions in high graphics games. The better the graphic card is the more tiny details you can see on the screen. Also, the screen transition will be smoother and can display more frames per second.
What is a Video Card?
Today’s world has lots of high-quality videos, 3D games, and graphic design software that show complex and detailed digital images. Showing these images is very demanding and normal computer processors (CPUs) can’t handle everything needed. So special video cards were invented to help with graphics processing. Video cards are addon cards inserted into desktop computer motherboards. They have a special chip called a graphics processing unit (GPU) designed just for graphics work.
CPUs are general-purpose processors that run programs and operating systems. GPUs focus on the huge number of repetitive math calculations needed to manipulate and show digital images. All those textures, lights, and shadows require parallel matrix math that GPUs can optimize. Video cards hold extra video memory for quick access to pixel colors and textures. They use PCI Express connections and ports like HDMI to move image data quickly to displays. Advanced cooling keeps cards stable under heavy use. The modular design allows people to customize and upgrade graphics power.
