What the GPU does, is it renders all the stuff. Or, it turns the computers electrical signals into a visual that can be seen on the screen.
So its like
COMPUTER SIGNALS --> GPU --> DISPLAY
A GPU turns Computer signals into signals a display can recognize and display.

why am I including the source? I'm not a sponsor or anything. I don't want to get called out for accidentally infringing copyright again. Also that website is sketchy and gives you Microsoft support scams. Don't go there.
