The hardware components that are usually used to offload some tasks to are the sound card and the GPU.Īpps that perform graphically intensive tasks such as displaying an HD video or viewing 3D content will pass this task on to the GPU. Strictly speaking, your CPU is supposed to handle the bulk load of everything but both apps and hardware have come a long way and their requirements have changed somewhat. Hardware acceleration is the process by which an app will use other hardware components on your system to perform certain tasks in order to work more efficiently.
One common app that uses hardware acceleration is Chrome and you have the option enable or disable this but just what is it? Is it a good idea to use it and what benefits does it have. It’s most commonly found as a setting that you can enable for some apps on your system.
Hardware acceleration is common term that most people have heard.
