Reply to comment by WeirdGamerAidan in ELI5: Why do computers need GPUs (integrated or external)? What information is the CPU sending to the GPU that it can't just send to a display? by WeirdGamerAidan
Basically the CPU figures out what math needs to be done and tells the GPU to go do it. GPUs are then designed to be especially good at the types of math that computer graphics use.
