- DVI
- The Digital Visual Interface is an interface designed to control analog and digital terminals such as, for example, monitors. With a large number of current devices, a DVI interface is still available. Due to the development of HDMI and DisplayPort interfaces, DVI is less and less used.
- EC Firmware
- The embedded controller, or EC, is a microcontroller that performs certain tasks on notebook computers, such as, for example, the charging control and the control of the fans.
- G-Sync
- NVidia G-Sync synchronizes the refresh rate of the monitor with that of the graphics card, thus preventing the so-called screen tearing.
- Graphics card
- The graphics card is designed for the image output of a computer and is therefore the central interface between the system and one or more monitors.
- HDMI
- HDMI is a widely used interface for the transmission of digital picture and sound signals. You can connect a computer or notebook to a monitor or TV via a HDMI port.
