Power color X800 GTO

Who manufactures X800?

ATI Technologies .Inc. is one of the biggest manufacturers of Graphic chips and boards. Located near Toronto Canada, this company has its Research and Development in Canada and USA, manufacturing in Taiwan, and sales offices throughout America, Europe and Asia. Since the very beginning, ATI has focused on catering the needs of PC market for graphic processors like Power Color X 800 GTO.

What is Power Color X800 GTO?

Power Color X 800 GTO is a video card (also known as Graphic Card, Graphic Adapter or Video Adapter), which allows a computer to transfer graphical information to a video display device like a projector or a computer monitor. Video Card was first introduced by NVIDIA, followed by an unsuccessful attempt by ATI Technologies. In the second attempt ATI succeeded in producing a device that excelled NVIDIA,s, but it was only too costly. Finally by trimming, ITA succeeded in the development of an AT Par product in the form of Power Color X800 GTO. Normally a Video card is rectangular and there are many contacts on the bottom of a card. It has usually one, and sometimes more ports on the side for connection to Video displays or other receiving devices.

What is a Graphic Processing Unit?

GPU (Graphic Processing Unit) is a single chip processor like CPU (Central Processing Unit). GPU is basically intended for rendering 2D pictures into 3-D pictures and this involves use of lighting effects, object transformations and 3D motion, which, overloads CPU. GPU performs the rendering at a much faster rate and so, enhances the efficiency of computer with a CPU, which is no more overloaded by dint of GPU.
