What is the difference between software rendering vs made gpu

original thread: made software vs made gpu

What is the difference between software rendering and rendered GPU "graphics accelerated" in Internet Properties?

"Software rendering" depends on the CPU to generate the elements of the screen. The problem is that the processor is busy doing other 'stuff' at the same time, which could slow down the screen painting.

"GPU rendering" leave a large part of the display of drawing to the graphics card. In theory, this can be better/more quickly if you have a graphics card in high power for several reasons:

  • the GPU is not as busy as the CPU that does "everything".
  • GPU is optimized for graphics, is not CPU (CPU must do more calculations)
  • several GPU is designed to treat the graphics commands in parallel, CPU only son them
  • GPU has dedicated memory, it doesn't have to share with other apps based CPU

    What is the difference between a version of MAR and the software win7 INKL?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    • What exactly you're talking about when you say, 'Version INKL of Windows 7?

    I'll be happy to answer your query, however, please explain more about abbreviation INKL. There is a version called Office of ink that is used in the Tablet PC.

    Here's the other version of Windows, you can make reference to:

    MAR - Microsoft Authorized Reacondicionador

    A new PC requires a version of windows with a new key license installed if purchased from a manufacturer.

    A refurbished PC is allowed to use an existing product key (2nd hand if you like) as long as it is always delivered with a certificate of authenticity (COA). This is referred to as MAR (Microsoft authorized Reacondicionador) which means that Microsoft allows to use existing keys/licenses products.

    Buy a version of windows means MAR technically you buy a second hand copy - being however, software, so it comes with COST, will make absolutely no difference at all.

  • What is the difference between Apple Watch sport and Apple Watch?

    What is the difference between Apple Watch Sport42mm space aluminum case gray with Strip black sports and Apple Watch 42 mm space with black Sport band black steel box?

    Hi Mathias

    There is no difference in the features of the software or the specifications of internal material between the Apple Watch models (with the exception of a few faces of exclusive watch on Apple Watch Hermès).

    The only differences are the materials used - including watch boxes, tapes, and views.

    For example: Apple Watch Sport models are designed to be as light as possible, using aluminum and glass aluminosilicate for the screen. Apple Watch models use heavy stainless steel case and sapphire glass for the screen.

    Your best option may be to make an appointment to try on Apple Watch in an Apple Store, see and feel the difference.

  • What is the difference between HP Photo Creations and Snapfish

    I've been curious.

    What is the difference between HP Photo Creations and Snapfish?

    Hi Jeff17866. The difference between these two services are the location, accessibility and share-ability of the recorded images. Snapfish is a photo on the web edition and sharing and belonged to printing HP service. You upload your images on the Snapfish site and share with other sites (Facebook, Flickr, etc) by selecting the appropriate options. The images are then stored on the cloud, and you will be able to access it from any device with Internet access. So, if you want to easily share your photos with your friends and family around the country, Snapfish is a great tool to do. HP Photo Creations is a photo editing software that you download to your desktop. You can edit your photos and order prints just as with Snapfish, but all pictures remain on your hard drive. They can be shared by downloading files on the sites you want the images appear, but you are not able to access it on other devices. -Chauntain

  • What is the difference between a backup of the plant and a recovery disk?

    For me a simple question, so I hope a simple answer.

    When I got to my laptop that I created a USB using DBR recovery. It is a little more than 8 GB in size and is appointed SYSRECOVERY.

    At that time there I didn't create a backup of the plant.

    Having recently been read on things related to the re-establishment of a system in case of disk failure hard etc, I saw that Dell has said you must create USB recovery media and a backup of the plant. So, I got a new USB and today created a backup of the plant.

    Looking at it, it is also called SYSRECOVERY and both have exactly the same list of files and folders and have almost the same size.

    So just what is the difference between these 2 options (if any)?

    Or do I now have 2 USBs that will do exactly the same work to restore my laptop computer provided that the factory?

    Case there is no difference, why Dell offer both (and recommend you create both)?

    Thank you

    Technically speaking a recovery media and backup of the plant are the same. But according to the post that you saw at Dell, recovery media is a backup of backup from the factory with the files and applications that you added later. Therefore, to be on the safe side, Dell recommends to create a backup of files and software that have been added later (or is not part of the default configuration).

    The factory backup contains all drivers and software according to the configuration of the PC, and that were pre-installed on your computer.

    Generally, Windows failure, you can use factory backup media to restore the PC without affecting your personal files and software. In the event of hard disk failure, where the hard drive is replaced, recovery media will be useful to restore Windows as well your files and applications.

  • What is the difference between. MHT and. HTM?

    Original title: is anyone know about MHT files?

    What is the difference between. MHT and. HTM?

    Hi Sheryl,

    Welcome to the Windows 7 community!

    I understand that you would like to know the difference between file MHT and HTM file. I'm happy to help you.

    MHTML, short for MIME HTML, is a format to archive web page used to combine resources that are usually represented by external links (such as images, Flash animations, audio files, Java applets) as well as the HTML code in a single file. The content of an MHTML file is encoded as if it were an email message to HTML, using the MIME type multipart/related. The first part of the file is normally encoded HTML; subsequent parts are additional resources identified by their URL original and encoded in base64. This format is sometimes referred to as MHT, after the suffix .mht given to these files by default when created by Microsoft Word, Internet Explorer or Opera. MHTML is a proposed standard, distributed in an edition revised in 1999 as RFC 2557.

    HTML Web page that is used by Web browsers; contains the code markup that is stored in a plain text format; used to display and format the text and images in a Web browser.

    HTM files serve the same exact than purpose. HTML files. The extension ".htm" appeared with the use of the Web Microsoft, such as FrontPage, SharePoint Designer and Expression Web development software.

    HTM files are much less common than HTML files.

    It will be useful. For any other corresponding Windows help, do not hesitate to contact us and we will be happy to help you.

  • Can someone tell me what is the difference between a default playback device and a default communication device?

    original title: sound settings are very complex. Can someone tell me what is the difference between a default playback device and a default communication device?

    In fact, I use the recording software to record songs instead of downloading. Some recorders record their own drivers and they work fine. But sometimes, they do not respond. The DD Realtek Audio Manager is sick with something. People suffer a lot using this. My questions are endless. Some of them are:

    • What is "Realtek Digital Output?
    • Save devices-part of sound cards?
    • What are animals like 'Audio CD' and 'Stereo Mix' displayed on the DD Realtek Audio Manager?
    I'm sorry for not being specific, but I need a very good idea of how to deal with the settings of the sound in windows 7. And one thing, I have no microphone plugged but always Realtek HD Audio Manager detects? Why?

    Hi SandiKollol,

    A communication device can mean different things, but mostly it is used to allow voice communications on the internet.

    A playback device plays his return, such as your speakers or headphones.

    I hope this helps.

  • What is the difference between Windows 7 OEM and the retail version of Windows 7?

    Can someone tell me, what is the difference between windows 7 OEM and sales vs retail?

    Can someone tell me, what is the difference between windows 7 OEM and sales vs retail?

    There is no difference in the product itself.

    Although if you get a generic OEM full version, it contains the
    even software, it has the following disadvantages compared to the
    commercial version:

    1. the biggest drawback of an OEM version (at least in the USA) is
    that its license it permanently binds to the first computer, it is
    installed on. He can never legally be moved to another computer, sold,
    or given (except with the original computer). If the computer
    dies or is stolen, your license dies with him.

    2. he can't do a clean install, not an upgrade.

    3 Microsoft offers no support for OEM versions. You cannot call their
    with a problem, but rather to secure the necessary support of your
    OEM; who take in charge may go anywhere between property and non-existent. Or
    You can get support elsewhere, like in these forums.
