Contents
GPU
A GPU can be attached to a Computer on all sides except for the bottom. The GPU peripheral comes with it's own API featuring extra methods that cannot be accessed using peripheral.wrap.

Graphics Devices
A graphics device operates on a certain frequency (corresponding to a #GPU's id) and has an id indicating which buffer it is bound to. All graphics devices have a certain resolution corresponding to the resolution of the graphics they can handle.
Graphics Output Devices
Output devices are used to display a certain output buffer to the user.
Monitor
The Monitor block can be placed facing up to 4 directions and
Graphics Input Devices
Currently CCGPU doesn't have any default input devices. A camera might be added in the future.
