ITPEC IP April 2021 — Question 12 of 100
A GPU is a processor specialized for highly parallel calculations such as 3D graphics and image processing. Its many arithmetic units can perform similar operations on large sets of pixels, vertices, or other data concurrently, accelerating suitable workloads alongside the CPU.
Answer (d)
Why not others:
- billions of instructions per second is a throughput measure
- the synchronizing frequency signal is the clock
- fast storage between CPU and main memory is cache memory
Key rule: A Graphics Processing Unit accelerates massively parallel numeric and graphics operations.
