Hardware and Software Graphical design is bound into many tools that require virtual visuals. Half of these items are digital external devices that sit around the PC. Here are a few pieces of hardware are located both in and out. Output Hardware Monitor Devices that are sold separately require a monitor to visually see what's on the screen. Products like phones, laptops and all in ones have inbuilt screens but are still dealt in the same way.

This process is repeated numerous amounts of times to get as close to frequent updates (real-time latency). There's a variety of different monitors with different display resolutions, sizes and refresh rates (Hz).
