A gaming graphics card, also known as a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), is a specialized piece of hardware designed to render images and video for computer games. It processes complex graphics calculations, allowing for smoother gameplay and higher visual quality. A powerful GPU can significantly enhance the gaming experience by providing better frame rates and detailed graphics. Modern gaming graphics cards often come with dedicated memory, known as VRAM, which helps store textures and images for quick access. They also support advanced technologies like ray tracing and DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), which improve realism and performance in games.
