Check these 4 things before you buy a Graphics Card | Graphic Card Buying Guide Tutorial

Most gamers want a brand new graphics card from their saved money but do not know the right guide for purchasing these graphics cards. You gonna search for a graphics card in any online store and end up buying a low-end graphics card without any proper knowledge. To avoid that here I came with four steps for beginners before they buy a brand new graphics card.

Check these 4 things before you purchase a Graphics Card.

1. Pick the correct brand

The first guide is to settle on the right brand of graphics card which is ideal for your PC. You have two options, one is NVIDIA and therefore the other one is AMD. I mostly like better to use NVIDIA cards (personal opinion) because they're more stable albeit they're costlier than AMD's.

The two brands are perfect for the build and provide maximum performance for your pc gaming. If you would like more performance and stability choose NVIDIA cards and if you would like performance with less cost choose AMD, so choose wisely.

2. Type of Memory/ Bit rate/ Speed

Another thing you would like to see out is to settle on the proper memory sort of graphics card. Mostly there are two sorts of memory one is Gddr3 and another one is Gddr5. As you all know Gddr5 gives more performance than Gddr3 and also if you're buying a 2GB Gddr3 graphics card, I better suggest you go with Gddr5 1GB because it gives you twice the value of normal Gddr3 memory. 

And also make sure which sort of memory your motherboard supports. Speaking of speed, Gddr5 is way better than Gddr3 in terms of Gb/s, and speaking of bit rate there are 128 bit, 256 bit. Higher the bit higher the performance.

3. CUDA Cores And Shaders

They are different technologies but are equivalent only, the most difference is CUDA cores are for NVIDIA, and shaders are for AMD'S. Their main objective is to render the images and give high graphic performance in a graphics card. The more CUDA cores or shaders, the more is performance.

4. Power Requirement

Most gamers don't check their power requirements before buying a graphics card. Just like you check the system requirements of a game, check the requirements of a graphics card also. First of all check your Watts in Power Supply Unit (PSU), to try to open your cabinet find your PSU, then on its body, there'll be a tag mentioning your watts. If your graphics card matches your PSU, then go for it.
