    Study Notes

    Graphics Card Installation

    • High-end graphics cards typically install in specific motherboard slots, notably PCI Express.
    • The recommended slot for maximum performance is PCI Express 5.0 x16 due to its increased data bandwidth compared to lower versions and configurations.
    • PCI Express 6.0 x32 is the latest technology but is not widely supported yet in current motherboards.

    Communication Standards

    • Protocols define the set of rules and standards used for communication between two entities.
    • Communication protocols ensure proper data transfer, error handling, and signal integrity.
    • Examples include TCP/IP for networking, USB for connectivity, and HTTP for web communication.
