      it's "tech topics" explained in a manner that's moderetely detailed "as fast as possible", presented in an attractive manner, as much as possible, in the title, thumbnail, and of course, the video. That means throwing "tech cult" things in an interesting way, curiosity-driven content for "techy people", in a nutshell, sometimes in a "humoristic manner. Oh, and there are salesmanship lessons in disguise too. Now if you like this comment, or curious to know how to make an "as fast as possible style" comment, you don't need to buy anything, yoyu need to practice summerizing things exhastively, without missing important detail, while highliting the things that might be of interest to people, in an interesting way :)

    Basically a CPU has a VERY limited amount of Geniuses solving complex math (complex algebra and AI programming)
    and then you have your GPU which is basically alot of idiots solving basic math (mostly geometry and short math)
    *hence you have few cores on ya CPU (solving complex stuff and splitting some of the calculations between the "smart" cores)
    *and hence you have a GPU like a GTX1070 with 1920 cuda cores (that solves normal and easy math by splitting it between all of the "stupid" cores.

    • @xplinux22
      @xplinux22 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Computer engineer here. This is a pretty apt analogy. There is an additional point to be made as well that GPU cores are more isolated from each other and are optimized for simple computations (data flows in, some function is applied to it, and data flows out), while CPU cores are more tightly integrated, allowing for data to be easily passed back and forth between them and for more complex control flow that a GPU would struggle at (e.g. recursive algorithms, handling global mutable state, and manual memory management).

    • @vasilis23456
      @vasilis23456 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Each cuda core is actually specialized core either for like 3d, physics, shadows, etc and a group of cuda cores makes an actual GPU core. So a cuda core is basically a core with a ton of hyperthreading. They are also know as shader cores everywhere but Nvidia.

      +Charlie Lee Each unit does a job (poligons, shader, textures, etc). Like they said, more is better, but please compare the same architectures, don't mix shaders from Maxwell, Kepler and GCN, because they are not the same.
      Unlike GPU components, FP64 is a measure (benchmark) of operations that the GPU can perform per second. You can see the single and double precison performance of gpus at the wikipedia list of gpus of each company. But I must say, those numbers are important for computational purposes. For gaming, they are pretty much irrelevant.

      @AlexanderPavel 8 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      +TSLMachine Why? An APU is literally a CPU and a GPU put on the same die. They are still separate chips with different purposes. Every Intel processor in the i series (i3, i5, i7) is like that as well (with the exception of the i7 extremes and some desktop Skylakes). The only real difference is that the CPU and GPU are right next to each other and the GPU borrows some of the system RAM (usually 256MB) instead of having its own dedicated VRAM (the PS4 in fact used GDDR5 for its system RAM, which is why it can handle higher resolutions more easily than the XBoxOne which used DDR3, even though they both use similarly powerful APUs)

      Chan Huynh Of course his son is adorable.
      That's not the point. If I want adorable kids, I can watch a sitcom.
      When watching a tech show, kids tend to make them run twice as long with half the content per minute than without them.
      Linus Media Group for lack of a better phrase are professionals. I want to watch professional tech videos. Not family happy time. Cute doesn't equal awesome unless cute is what you want first. That's not why I'm here. I'm here to learn tech items first as an adult.
      I have seen other YT persons try to bring their kids on screen for tech stuff. It drags. The child usually looks like they are forced into doing it and is generally tiresome to watch.
      Imagine you get in a car wreck and need the bone in your arm reset at the Emergency Room. Do you want the doctor showing her kid how to put on a cast with your arm? Especially when the kid doesn't understand why he or she is there and is thinking about the cartoons he or she is missing.? No
      Same thing with tech news.

    Good point Linus, the differences in graphics processors vs machine processors are similar but very different! The time MIT-Came out with the Altair 8800, back in the 70's, the main processor did calculate the rendering of point graphics on the screen! It took about 5-minutes to draw as squiggly line from one side of the screen to the other! Of curse in the brilliant 8-color graphics! I think they knew back then the addition of another processor was needed to handle the load processing, freeing the main processor for housekeeping chores! A Little Trivia: Compaq, dell, and Gateway all used to be Mail-Order computer companies when they were mom-&-pop companies! Compaq came out with the first portable computer, called in many business, the suit-case! The two companies, Compaq and Gateway are now owned by Hewlett-Packard! Dell, now one of the major computer companies that provide platforms over many applications, even NASA! A year of Knowledge compact into 6-MIN, HA!

    Guys im new here!!!
    I recently installed a new GPU on my pc.
    the problem is after i booted the pc.
    Whenever i play videos, i noticed that the gpu fan speeds up.
    and when i dont stop the video i played in a minute the monitor will go black (cpu still running).
    then i have to reset it in order to boot again,
    Same happens when i open a game, gpu fan speeds up, and then boom! monitor goes black again. same thing!
    Pls help me. my system is,,
    Intel Core i5 2400 3.10ghz
    8gb ram
    1 tb Hdd
    PSU 600 watts true rated
    GPU is GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II idont know if its the OC version or not. 2gb 256bit gddr5
    Some says its the PSU not capable or short in powering my gpu.
    (NOTE: when display adapter is disabled in "device manager" or in "safe mode" the pc runs fine).

    • @cryonim
      @cryonim 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +Toriel GPUs have many compute units with their microchip too, we can't place all those compute units (usually 4-8) in cpu sockets ( as it will take too much space) and nor could we just provide all of them with adequate cooling if directly placed on motherboard. In a bit of understand-able way, GPU includes more than just 1 microchip that makes it a GPU, it includes but is not limited to VRAM modules, Compute units, Microchip and i guess some power amplifiers .That is what a GPU is and you cannot just stack up all of them in 1 cpu socket as you can't cool all of it or put them in different sockets on motherboard as cooling would be expensive and complex meanwhile making it all a tedious job.

    • @AdelAlqadi1
      @AdelAlqadi1 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +A SaGaR so why can't it be done the same way that APUs are pulled off?

    • @curtisjmurphy
      @curtisjmurphy 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Toriel Having a single standardized GPU socket on a MOBO would be no different than the current PCIe standard in terms of speed and connectivity issues. In fact, if anything it would negatively impact performance and make the whole set-up more complicated EX: Power delivery would be handled by the MOBO meaning it would be less flexible and customizable for different chips. The chip would also have to use system RAM or have seperate RAM slots for faster vRAM either reducing performance or complicating the set-up. Basically, whether the GPU is on a seperate die in a seperate socket or on the same die and socket as the CPU (integrated GPU, APU etc.) it will have the same speed, power and connectivity issues.

    • @cryonim
      @cryonim 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      ***** Adel Alqadi I gave it all a thought and now i do understand all of it ( maybe ). GPUs are designed to work 1 task only per one cycle along with all of their cores doing the same thing. In a CPU, all cores could work simultaneously on many things at same cycle. APUs are basically a GPU+CPU on 1 same chip ( a marvel of engineering ). A dedicated GPU is different from a GPU in an APU as APU uses the same ram the cpu uses causing small bandwidth and memory bottleneck if ram is slow .Also APUs are basically 1/2 of a GPU in terms of power and performance and because of APUs, the CPUs in them aren't able to pull off great performance. And anyways, all CPUs could do what GPUs do but then they also have to do their own job and that's why their performance in graphics is terrible.Like Intel HD xxxx in all of Intel CPUs .APUs just compromise CPU performance for GPU and that's all.
      Now why do we need the bigger GPUs seperately and why do they need to be on a pcie slot ?
      Answer is , Dedicated GPUs have a lot of complexity in them and as I said before they include a CPU and a lot of stuff onboard with them which just can't be put on motherboard because of circuit complexity,cooling,power consumption and economy. GPUs use a pcie lane because, well 1stly pcie is just another way of communication with motherboard and 2ndly it seems better as nobody needs pins, 3rdly GPU has much lesser speed than CPU , and also requires lesser data than CPU so it's just not required of a CPU socket to be used for GPU ( also CPU socket is square/rectangle and that would make an odd connector for a thing as large as a GPU). And dedicated GPUs are that big because they need way faster RAM , so they have their own small VRAM which is way faster than RAMs and that makes the VRAMs hot too , so not only they need space to be put on but they also need power+cooling.Also GPUs have their own power management modules and many other things.
      In short, GPUs are big because they are an independent part of system and only need data and power, nothing else. And we don't use CPU sockets because that would be not necessary at all ( CPU sockets are more complex than GPU sockets ).

    I'm an obsessive gamer, but I think a lot of people might want this info answered in the most in-depth possible way, with no regard to how long the video is. If you can make an epic documentary, that is 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, or whatever is necessary to get the correct points across, that has a rubric, so you could update it every 2 years or whatever you chose, or never update it again, but have it as a format of information for future PC consumers. There was so much information that I missed while creating my first PC, and there are probably more things that I am missing as well.
    I gave a like, but why did you under-represent the performance than a
    CPU has on frames per second, by basically not talking about frames per
    second at all, and that CPU influences gaming fps as does GPU. It can
    have massive changes, like 10-100 fps increases/decreases depending on
    the CPU you equip with your GPU. This even holds true at the high end
    GPUS.
    I would like you guys, to do a video, on this concept : Performance gains in fps on a massive scale. Meaning, a lengthy video showing all inputs to what creates frames per second differences in gaming, and to show whether they are more influential presently, at 1080, 2K, 4K, etc.
    I.E. , what percentage even if small, does Operating system, RAM, CPU, GPU, Motherboard speeds/components, SSD's/HDD, Raid0 or any other special feature that would affect fps. Basically which CPU types do better for gaming versus server CPU's.
    This would be a video for an enthusiast like myself, who knows some, but is still ignorant, or who wants literally every single frame they can get, and also which components created this :
    A higher low fps
    A higher average fps
    A higher max fps
    The least possible variation of frames/ least amount of dropped frames , etc.

  • @gerarldlee

    Exactly that. But my question begs to differ. I mean, we can also use the GPU for mining purposes not just to render things. With that in mind, it would be better if and as you said for a motherboard to have a CPU and GPU chip (2 sockets, GPU as add on CPU as required), and with the integrated graphics for the visual output. I really think that the visual output component of a GFX card is pretty useless unless for a multi-monitor setup. Tho, correct me if im wrong. In a multi monitor setup, say you want a game to render in the GPU, but uses the integrated GFX as output, you can do this right? This is because I noticed that in a multi monitor setup, whenever i am playing a game in the monitor that connects to the GFX card, I also see GPU usage in the Task Manager on other program that was viewed on the other monitor (which was connected in the integrated GFX)
