What started off as a tool for solving complex mathematical computations, the computer has gone into a whole new level ever since its inception to the current avatars it is available throughout the world. Computers have become an inseparable part of our lives nowadays and one cannot imagine how the world would have become if computers were not invented. They made calculations simpler, tasks easy, automation perfect and most of all they simplified our lives in various spheres.
The era of personal home computers began late into the 90’s when large scale miniaturization of electronic components became possible thereby resulting in reduced prices of computer hardware. People began buying computers for basic functionality then, but as time passed it became absolutely obsolete to term computers as computational machines. They have become rather a form of personalized entertainment solutions for young and old alike.
Today we use computers for computations, performing office and business tasks, watching movies, playing games, listening to music and various other purposes. As the number of applications began to increase the list of dedicated hardware requirements needed for the smooth performance and running of such applications began to make a name for themselves. And off these dedicated hardware’s the most prominent ones are of course dedicated graphics memory card.
Gaming in computers is now one of the biggest passions of today’s youth population and there are millions of games available online and in stores for users to either buy them for cash or download them for free. But today’s games are fully loaded with high end graphics that your inbuilt graphic processors might just find it difficult to process the heavy display parameters. This scenario is where you would like to make use of the service of a dedicated graphics card in your system.
Dedicated graphics card memory is nothing but a graphics hardware that supports your processor by providing more space for virtual memory consumption by heavy graphics prone applications like high intensity games and high definition videos. They relieve your systems RAM and processor off the task of having to provide the required graphics environment for games and movies to be presented on the screen. The larger the memory capacity of the dedicated graphics card, greater will be its ability to support high graphics enabled games.
Today you can find in the market Dedicated Graphic cards with memory options ranging from 64 MB to even 2 or 3 GB. The prime competitors in the dedicated graphics card arena are NVIDIA and AMD or more known as ATI. Both are reliable and experienced Graphic card manufacturers that have had a long and successful time in the market.
If you are an absolute gaming junkie, then you have to choose a dedicated graphics card of minimum 1GB of memory. But having a powerful graphics card means you will have to compromise on power consumption as graphics hardware drains a lot of power and if you are suing a laptop then you will have to take it to frequent visits to the charging socket.
In short dedicated graphic cards help a lot in making your system best suited for high end games and videos but they do come at the expense of power consumption.
