Graphics Processing Unit
A Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) is a specialized electronic circuit designed to accelerate the rendering of images, videos, and 3D graphics. Unlike a general-purpose CPU that handles many types of tasks, a GPU is optimized to perform many calculations simultaneously, making it ideal for complex visual processing. This capability enhances the quality and speed of graphics in video games, movies, and visual applications. Modern GPUs also support tasks like artificial intelligence and data analysis, leveraging their parallel processing power for efficient computation across various fields beyond just graphics.
