Concepts like artificial intelligence (AI) and cryptocurrency have become nowadays hot spots. Graphics cards stand as one of the most important hardware components behind technologies like cryptocurrency mining and artificial intelligence. The rapid advancement of these projects relies on the immense computational power provided by graphics cards. Therefore, an analysis of the development history of graphic cards is essential. This paper primarily investigates the evolutionary journey and application scenarios of graphics cards since the last century. This paper conducts a relevant analysis by collecting historical product information and financial data from leading graphics card manufacturers like NVIDIA, Advanced Micro Devices, and others. This paper finds that the primary applications of graphics cards are currently well-established, and future expansions into other fields would likely build upon existing technologies rather than introducing entirely new ones, like artificial intelligence. However, the future of technology is unpredictable, and making absolute predictions is challenging.
