The
GPU is the short form of Graphics Processing Unit. This is a single-chip processor primarily used to manage and boost the performance of video and graphics. Into the GPU features include:
- Support for YUV color space
- Hardware overlays
- MPEG decoding
- 2-D or 3-D graphics
- Digital output to flat panel display monitors
- Texture mapping
- Application support for high-intensity graphics software such as AutoCAD
- Rendering polygons

Those features are designed to lessen the work of the CPU and produce faster video and graphics. The GPU is not only used in a PC on a video card or motherboard; it is also used in mobile phones, display adapters, workstations, and game consoles. That term is also known as a visual processing unit (VPU). Their primary responsibility is ensuring content displays and renders on your computer screen or monitor correctly. It includes everything - from the user interface to applications and web pages and of course high-intensity games.
