Item Device Examples Impact on Gaming
CPU Processing Intel Core i7 for The central processing unit (CPU) is the brains
PC of the computer.
The performance of a computer game is
determined by the processor's capabilities. In
the case of a video game, the CPU is in charge
of calculating all of the game's system
requirements.
Because games consoles are optimised to
function with fewer details, they can employ
slower CPUs.
Mobile devices, such as smart phones, have
substantially slower CPUs, making large-scale
games with intricate visuals impossible to play.
GPU Processing NVIDIA Quadro
RTX™ 5000 A graphics processing unit (GPU) manages the
16GB production of images on the display.
Serious gaming requires a significant amount of
graphical processing power. Although most
conventional PCs have graphics processing built

card. Adding a graphics card to your Gaming PC
will give you a noticeable boost in performance.
The GPU on your mobile device is crucial since it
allows games to run more effectively and
appear better because of higher resolution
visuals and faster framerates.
RAM Processing RGB PRO 16GB RAM is important because your system can
access data in it more quickly than it can
retrieve info from your main storage disk.
With low RAM, your computer won't be able to
store all the game info it needs to run properly,
leading to choppy frame rates and poor
performance.
ROM Processing DVD, CD If you are a console gamer then DVD is a
important thing because the game is installed in
