Meaning and key features

[bitheerani319]

Onboard graphics , also known as integrated graphics , is a graphics processing unit (GPU) that's built right into your computer's motherboard or CPU. This integrated solution shares system memory with the rest of the components, eliminating the need for separate video memory.

Although suitable for basic computer tasks such as surfing the net or using Office programs, onboard graphics cards often do not have enough processing power for heavy graphics tasks such as gaming or professional 3D rendering.

Integrated graphics on motherboard or CPU
Integrated graphics processing units (GPUs), embedded in motherboards or CPUs, are a fundamental component of modern lithuania mobile database systems. They provide basic graphics capabilities without the need for a discrete graphics card. This integrated solution shares system resources, resulting in cost- and power-saving solutions for common everyday tasks.

Share system memory with other components
One of the hallmarks of onboard graphics cards is their reliance on shared system memory , a feature that determines the performance and allocation of resources within a computer system.

This integrated solution uses part of the system RAM for graphics processing, unlike a discrete graphics card that has its own VRAM. As a result, less memory is available for other tasks, which can affect overall system performance, especially during graphics-intensive tasks.
