Why can't we use a completely GPU-based system rather than using it in combination with a CPU, as alone it can provide higher computing power than a CPU?
I was wondering why we can't use a completely GPU-based system instead of using it in combination with a CPU, as alone it can provide higher computing power than a CPU?
That's a great question. GPUs are indeed capable of processing massive amounts of data in parallel, making them ideal for certain computational tasks such as rendering graphics or machine learning. However, there are still some tasks that CPUs are better suited for, such as single-threaded operations or handling I/O requests. In addition, GPUs can be more expensive and power-hungry than CPUs, which may not be practical for all use cases.
