Hi everyone! You are all heard the terms CPU, GPU, and APU. So we are all straightly diving in to the topic right.
Hey! Wait! We’re
heard the terms CPU and GPU but APU. We think is there any new technology which
is invented using this. We can’t hear that one but we think that if you’re
using it then we will get the info of this new one? Ok, explain it.
Thank you
for your consideration. I also excited when heard about this term but it
can be used in our daily life did you believe it? I am so excited while writing
this one so no further discussion let’s dig the topic step by step. Right! Let’s
GO!!
So all of us
heard the term CPU at least once a week. Because there is no place without
the computer which means if you hear the word computer then you heard the term
CPU. It is the major part that is the brain of the computer. Without the CPU, the
computer is nothing but just an empty box. because it is the one who can do
all the tasks given by the user. This means the CPU is one that can get the input,
process it, and produce the appropriate result for that input. This means all
the components in the computer are fully controlled by the CPU.
I think now you
are all understood the means and the working process of CPU. It looks childish
to you but it’s my duty to tell you this. That is CPU means Central Processing
Unit.
The next one
in this article is GPU. GPU means Graphics Processing Unit. The name itself
implies that it will do all the visual processing work. In the early days, all the
processing works are only done by the CPU, but it has many limitations such as
increased processing time, limited visual quality. To improve the visual quality,
the inventor is created a separate processing unit for that this will also
reduce the time for visual processing it reduced the work of the CPU. The GPU
system comes in two categories one is integrated GPU which means it shares the
RAM with CPU for example if you have 4GB RAM, then CPU uses 3GB and 1GB is for
GPU. This type of GPU is very cheap and best for normal users. The second
type is dedicated GPU, the word dedicated itself explains it has separate
memory for GPU. This one is best suitable for gamers, graphic designers, etc but
it produces a lot of heat.
Now I think
you all understand what is CPU and GPU and how it works. Through the
working process, you all know the difference also it’s a time for us to next
thing APU.
APU means
Accelerated Processing Unit. In the above two cases, the CPU and GPU work
separately which means it take much amount of time for processing and take some
amount of physical space. To rectify this, the processor making Giant AMD will introduce a new type of processor in 2011 called APU, which combines both CPU and GPU in a
single chip. The major aim of this one is to reduce the physical space and the
processing time is also reduced. The integrated GPU system will work the same
as this but compared to that one it has many advantages also like the heat produced
by the dedicated GPU will reduce. So overall the size is reduced, and the
manufacturing cost also reduced, the manufacturer found to make a new way. The latest
iteration of this technology is System-on-a-Chip (SoC) devices, which means all
the processing electronic components are combined into a single chip. I think if
you buy a smartphone then you will see then this term will be placed on the box. Because
all the processors which are made by AMD are under this one.
I think now you all know what is CPU, GPU, and APU means and how it works and how it
differs from one another. So thank you for reading!!
