You need to know the differences between them? They look similar, but their jobs are worlds apart!

The Big Question?

Introducing the CPU:

Meet the CPU: It's known as the Brain of your computer. Without CPU, it's just a box.

CPU's Core Function:

CPU Job is to handle complex, sequential tasks and system logic (the general operations).

Meet the GPU: The Muscle (or parallel processing powerhouse). It's known for excel graphics power.

GPU's Core Function

Priority 1: CPU Focus

When Your work need quick, complex calculations & detailed AI/physics, Coding, etc..

Prioritize GPU: When you need stunning visuals at high resolutions (1440p / 4K Gaming). AI model training, etc..

Priority 2: GPU Focus

For the Content Creator world, GPU handles the heavy work (rendering, effects, encoding).  Without it, computer will give slower performance.

Creator Focus:

The Danger:  Bottleneck

The Takeaway

The main Goal is balanced system! The best build matches the CPU and GPU to the workload.
