How to Choose A Graphics Card for Best Gaming Experience

In the gone ages, video gaming was limited to pixelated games like Mario, Contra and Duck Hunt.

But now gamers have 4k resolution games available like Call of Duty, Need for Speed, Fortnite and PUBG which enables players to experience the game in real time and provides players with a feeling of being inside the game.

And with the continued innovation and development in technology, we even have an option to play games on a VR set. But such games require a graphics card to run smoothly, or you may face lags and very low resolution.

Nvidia has a vast range of robust graphics cards that facilitates gamers and streamers to enjoy the latest games with excellent resolution. Such graphics cards can be assembled in PC but come in-built in gaming laptops.

GPUs have an additional fan and laser-guided ray mechanics which allows the gamers to avail 60 to 120 frames per second in 4K resolution.

It becomes quite essential to choose a GPU that suits your requirements as Graphics card is one of the most expensive components in a system.

GPUs are available with various specifications and the cost of GPU's increases as you opt for more powerful graphics card option.

While purchasing a GPU, always consider your personal requirements and needs. Firstly look for the requirements and specifications of the games you want to access, and then choose from the available options.

Mostly all recent games demands at least 1.5 GB GPU's,  but if you are looking forward to playing games like Fortnite and PUBG, then 2GB or 2.5 GB graphic card becomes a necessity.

If you have a gaming channel or you are looking forward to creating a live stream, then 4GB GPU becomes necessary as while recording the gameplay you would not want any hiss or lags in the stream.

Another factor that becomes necessary in undermining is the display screen of your device. If your monitor screen is old or have low resolution then even inserting a powerful GPU won't make much of a difference.

If you are not interested in changing your monitor or have recently bought a device, then you should choose a 1.5 or 2 GB GPU as that would also provide satisfactory performance.

As Graphic cards are quite expensive hardware devices, Purchasing it again would not be feasible. If you have an old monitor, what you can choose to do is purchase a high-end GPU and buy a monitor later sometime in the future.

Graphics cards are an essential unit of any gamers life, and it becomes mandatory for the gamer to determine his system performance and compatibility with his selected GPU.

Sometimes users purchase expensive graphics cards and forget about the CPU's potential for handling such heavy hardware. Which eventually affects the system performance.

So while ensuring the requirements of the desired game you want to play, also make sure that your System is capable of handling such a powerful graphics card that the game requires, to ensure proper performance of the device.

By keeping these points in mind, you can choose the best GPU for your use, and experience your gameplay in a realistic scenario.
