What is a graphics card?

 A graphics card (or video card) allows your computer to process images. Graphics cards are often described as "integrated" or "dedicated". An integrated graphics card has low memory and uses a lot of system RAM, which decreases the total RAM that can be allocated to other tasks.

This is not ideal, as this type of memory can slow down your computer. Dedicated graphics cards, on the other hand, use their own RAM and a dedicated processor that are used specifically to process images from video sequences. Since such cards don't use up your system's resources, they don't slow it down.

 

How to increase speed in other tasks

Graphics cards go a long way in boosting the level of detail and speed of programs like Photoshop, PowerPoint, and Keynote. They also improve performance in photo editing software, especially when working with high resolution images.

Without a powerful enough graphics card, you have to wait for your computer to process your image every time you make a change to it. Whether it's playing back video clips, editing images or saving them, everything will go faster.

 

How can I upgrade my PC's graphics card?

This relatively thin component fits into one of your computer's expansion ports. It is relatively simple to install a graphics card; just refer to the instructions in the supplied manual. Once yours is installed in your computer's motherboard or CPU, your operating system should automatically detect it and tell you the steps to follow to install the required software. If not, you may need to insert the installation CD included with your motherboard. Once all this is done, you will be able to enjoy better graphics and faster processing.
