Is it possible to use CPU to do GPU's work in theory?
In the world of computers, the Central Processing Unit (CPU) and Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) serve different purposes. CPUs handle general tasks, running the operating system, executing applications, and managing input/output operations. GPUs, on the other hand, are specialized for parallel processing tasks like rendering graphics or performing complex calculations in scientific computing. This article explores whether, in theory, a CPU can take over the responsibilities of a GPU.
