Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What kind of processing and calculations is the GPU in charge of?
A
All the programs that are open in RAM.
B
All the graphic calculations to do with video, image and colours.
C
All the calculations going on on the computer.
D
GPU doesn’t do any calculations or processing.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -GPUs will use parallel processing, where multiple processors handle separate parts of the same task. A GPU will also have its own RAM (random access memory) to store data on the images it processes. Information about each pixel is stored, including its location on the display.

Detailed explanation-2: -What does GPU stand for? Graphics processing unit, a specialized processor originally designed to accelerate graphics rendering. GPUs can process many pieces of data simultaneously, making them useful for machine learning, video editing, and gaming applications.

Detailed explanation-3: -Right click on the desktop and select [NVIDIA Control Panel]. Select [View] or [Desktop] (the option varies by driver version) in the tool bar then check [Display GPU Activity Icon in Notification Area]. In Windows taskbar, mouse over the “GPU Activity” icon to check the list.

Detailed explanation-4: -While CPUs can perform sequential tasks on complex computations quickly and efficiently, they are less efficient at parallel processing across a wide range of tasks. GPUs are excellent at handling specialized computations and can have thousands of cores that can run operations in parallel on multiple data points.
