============
{{:items:gpu1.png?nolink&128|}} {{:items:gpu2.png?nolink&128|}} {{:items:gpu3.png?nolink&128|}}

Used to change what's displayed on screens. Computers can control the buffer of a bound [[block:screen|screen]] via the [[component:gpu|GPU's API]].

- Maximum resolution: 50x16/80x25/160x50.
- Maximum color depth: 1/4/8.
- Operations/tick: 1,1,4,2,2/2,4,8,4,4/4,8,16,8,8.

The operations refer to, from left to right: `copy`, `fill`, `set`, `setBackground` and `setForeground`. The number indicates the number *direct* calls that can be made to each of these functions on the graphics card *per tick* before an indirect call has to be made. See the [[component:component_access|page on component interaction]] for more information on direct calls.

The Graphics Card (Tier 1) is crafted using the following recipe:
  * 1 x [[item:materials|Arithmetic Logic Unit]]
  * 1 x [[item:materials|Card Base]]
  * 1 x [[item:materials|Microchip (Tier 1)]]
  * 1 x [[item:memory|Memory (Tier 1)]]
