GPU (GrAPHICS PROCESSING UNIT)
Also known as the graphics card. This is the part of the computer that does all the heavy lifting in Video Games. Depending on if you want to play the latest Next-Gen games, or current games
01
NVIDIA OR AMD?
This is the questions all gamers have to ask themselves one day. On the surface there is not much difference but there is trust me. NVIDIA cards are usually more expensive but have less RAM, but this comes with video compression software called NVENC and currently RTX card perform better in ray tracing titles.
02
WHAT RESOLUTION DO YOU WANT?
This is a very important question because this will define which graphics cards you will need. If you are gaming at a 1080p, the budget graphics cards will be at most what you need, for 1440p you're gonna need something better than a GTX 1070 and for 4k you're gonna need something like the RTX 2080 or better.
03
FREESYNC AND GSYNC
Have you ever seen those little lines that appear sometimes when you're playing a game on your PC? This is called screen tearing and fortunately they have come up with a solution and its called variable refresh rate, otherwise known as freesync or Gsync, freesync works with both brands but G-Sync will only work with NVIDIA.
