Computer Hardware Tips : What Is a Graphics Processing Unit?

[Yimi97]

Woah, anybody else see a jump in the quality selection? 360p to 720p totally skipping 480p. Never seen that before.

A graphics card not a small computer. You forgot to mention SLI and Crossfire or dual GPU cards, who has a quad core graphics card. I would love to see you connect that AGP card to another card for better gaming. And I still can see the ancient MoBo on the desk, and you still have the same shirt as in all your other videos. You give a lot of rubbish information.

quad cores are not what gpus are today, they have more than 200 cores (nvidia) and over 600 (amd/ati)

Why would the card be electrically charged when it is not even plugged to the motherboard?

[PissedJelly]

I was referring to that HE might be, thus maybe hurting the device.

[ertreri]

AH!!!

Does that ever happen? A person become electrically charged to a degree that it would hurt device components?

[PissedJelly]

They are fragile so, yes

[ertreri]

so, the safe thing to do is wear gloves. :P
