GPU slots are commonly found in modern desktop and laptop computers, and are designed to accept graphics processing units (GPUs). GPUs are specialized microchips that are used to speed up the rendering of graphics on a computer screen.
GPUs can be used for a wide variety of tasks, including the rendering of 3D images and videos, the simulation of physical processes, and the calculation of mathematical problems. They can also be used for gaming, where they provide a significant increase in performance over traditional CPUs.
Most modern GPUs use a PCI Express interface, which allows them to be connected directly to the motherboard. This type of slot is also known as a graphics card slot or graphics adapter slot.
Older GPUs used an AGP (Auxiliary Graphics Port) interface, which allowed them to be connected to the motherboard via an external port.
