Cards. Offers the full array of graphic accelerator cards using the latest chipset
technology from TNT2 Nvidia Riva and GeForce 2, 3 and 4. A board that plugs into a
personal computer to give it display capabilities. The display capabilities of a computer,
however, depend on both the logical circuitry (provided in the video adapter) and the
display monitor. A monochrome monitor, for example, cannot display colors no matter how
powerful the video adapter. Many different types of video adapters are available for PCs.

video standards defined by IBM or VESA. Each adapter offers several different video modes.
The two basic categories of video modes are text and graphics. In text mode, a monitor can
display only ASCII characters. In graphics mode, a monitor can display any bit-mapped
image. Within the text and graphics modes, some monitors also offer a choice of
resolutions. At lower resolutions a monitor can display more colors. Modern video adapters
contain memory, so that the computer's RAM is not used for storing displays. In addition,
most adapters have their own graphics coprocessor for performing graphics calculations.
These adapters are often called graphics accelerators. A type of video adapter that
contains its own processor to boost performance levels. These processors are specialized
for computing graphical transformations, so they achieve better results than the
general-purpose CPU used by the computer. In addition, they free up the computer's CPU to
execute other commands while the graphics accelerator is handling graphics computations.
The popularity of graphical applications, and especially multimedia applications, has made
graphics accelerators not only a common enhancement, but a necessity. Most computer
manufacturers now bundle a graphics accelerator with their mid-range and high-end systems.
Aside from the graphics processor used, the other characteristics that differentiate
graphics accelerators are: memory : Graphics accelerators have their own memory, which is
reserved for storing graphical representations. The amount of memory determines how much
resolution and how many colors can be displayed. Some accelerators use conventional DRAM,
but others use a special type of video RAM (VRAM), which enables both the video circuitry
and the processor to simultaneously access the memory. bus : Each graphics accelerator is
designed for a particular type of video bus. As of 1995, most are designed for the PCI
bus. register width: The wider the register, the more data the processor can manipulate
with each instruction. 64-bit accelerators are already becoming common, and we can expect
128-bit accelerators in the near future. |
