  2. Video random-access memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_random-access_memory

    Video random-access memory (VRAM) is dedicated computer memory used to store the pixels and other graphics data as a framebuffer to be rendered on a computer monitor. [1] It often uses a different technology than other computer memory, in order to be read quickly for display on a screen.

  3. Framebuffer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framebuffer

    In computing, a screen buffer is a part of computer memory used by a computer application for the representation of the content to be shown on the computer display. [3] The screen buffer may also be called the video buffer , the regeneration buffer , or regen buffer for short. [ 4 ]

    VGA section on the motherboard in IBM PS/55. The color palette random access memory (RAM) and its corresponding digital-to-analog converter (DAC) were integrated into one chip (the RAMDAC) and the cathode-ray tube controller was integrated into a main VGA chip, which eliminated several other chips in previous graphics adapters, so VGA only additionally required external video RAM and timing ...

    If so, we have nothing to do: finished Otherwise: Wait until the lift is idle Go to the required floor Release the memory we used to remember the floor number The memory leak would occur if the floor number requested is the same floor that the elevator is on; the condition for releasing the memory would be skipped.

  6. Dynamic video memory technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_video_memory...

    The amount of video memory is dependent upon the amount of pre-allocated video memory plus DVMT allocation. DVMT, as its name implies, dynamically allocates system memory for use as video memory to ensure more available resources for 2D/3D graphics performance, e.g. for graphically demanding games.

  7. GDDR SDRAM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GDDR_SDRAM

    Graphics DDR SDRAM (GDDR SDRAM) is a type of synchronous dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM) specifically designed for applications requiring high bandwidth, [1] e.g. graphics processing units (GPUs).

  8. Radeon HD 7000 series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radeon_HD_7000_series

    The Radeon HD 7000 series, codenamed "Southern Islands", is a family of GPUs developed by AMD, [9] and manufactured on TSMC's 28 nm process. [10]The primary competitor of Southern Islands was Nvidia's GeForce 600 series (also manufactured at TSMC), which shipped during Q1 2012, largely due to the immaturity of the 28 nm process.

  9. VGA text mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VGA_text_mode

    Each screen character is represented by two bytes aligned as a 16-bit word accessible by the CPU in a single operation. The lower (or character) byte is the actual code point for the current character set, and the higher (or attribute) byte is a bit field used to select various video attributes such as color, blinking, character set, and so forth.
