Having a high-speed bus is as important as in sequence having a good transmission in a car. If you have a 700-horsepower engine collective with a cheap transmission, you cannot get all that power to the road. There are many different types of buses.

    The graphics card talks to the processor using the computer's bus as a announcement conduit. The benefit of a bus is that it makes parts more interchangeable. If you want to get a better graphics card, you basically unplug the old card from the bus and plug in a new one. If you want two monitors on your computer, you plug two graphics cards into the bus. And so on.
