What is required for GPU mining?

GPU=Graphics Processing Unit

It refers to mining with your video card.  The processor on the video card (the GPU) can be used to calculate the hashing algorithm of the various types of cryptocurriencies.  For most types of cryptocurrency a GPU is better than a CPU for this purpose.
