It features the DisplayLink DL-3100 USB 3.0 graphics chipset, and works by rendering graphics with your computer’s CPU and GPU, and then compressing and transmitting the pixels that change over USB. 2GHz dual core or better CPU and at least 2GB of RAM recommended. Best suited for web and productivity software, not 3D gaming or HD video playback. No power plug is needed β power is provided by USB and the adapter has an LED indicator light.
