How It Works:

- Get-CimInstance -ClassName Win32\_VideoController queries the graphics adapter class, which holds display and GPU-related details.
- CurrentHorizontalResolution and CurrentVerticalResolution return the width and height of the current display resolution in pixels - 1920 x 1080 here means Full HD (1080p).
