The amount of RAM memory available on the graphics card. Important for demanding games and applications at high resolutions. It is recommended that the card has 4GB or more for gaming.
The main Intel graphics processing chip that the card has. It largely determines its performance in games, creative applications, and professional tasks.
OverClocked: The graphics card is outdated by the manufacturer. They offer better performance compared to their basic version.
Low Profile: Small-sized graphics cards.
RGB Lighting: It features built-in colorful LED lighting.
Without external power: Does not require external power, like the 6-pin or the 8-pin we find on more powerful graphics card. They are powered by the PCI Express from the motherboard.
Performance: Cards that can smoothly run the most modern games at high resolutions up to 8K.
Entry Level: Cards that can run satisfactorily to exceptionally, games with resolutions up to Full HD (1920x1080).
Basic: Economic cards that make up a computer intended for office applications or even light gaming.
Professional: Cards designed for professionals who use their computer for design programs, game development, image editing, and other demanding applications.
HDMI: Modern way of digital transfer of image and sound, compatible with DisplayPort and DVI through an adapter.
DVI-D: An older digital way of transferring images, partially compatible with HDMI cables through an adapter. The Dual version supports higher resolutions compared to the simple one.
USB-C: Modern method of digital transfer of image, sound, and data with simultaneous charging capability.
VGA (D-Sub): An older type of image transfer that lacks in quality compared to modern digital ones such as HDMI, display port, etc.
DisplayPort: Modern method of digital transfer of image, sound and data, compatible with HDMI and DVI through an adapter.
Hardcore Gaming: Top performance for maximum detail at high resolutions. Designed for absolute smoothness in motion and support for advanced imaging technologies.
Casual Gaming: Affordable options for smooth gaming at basic resolutions, everyday office use, and media playback. Ideal for systems with low power consumption.
Pro Video Editing: Specialized hardware with an emphasis on large memory capacity and processing power. Suitable for complex content production projects, 3D graphics, and computational tasks.
The total length of the graphics card. Before purchasing, compare it with the maximum supported graphics card length of the case, taking into account any front fans or radiator.
Up to 180mm: Very small graphics cards, suitable for many compact systems. Also check the height and the number of slots they occupy.
181mm - 230mm: Short-length cards that can be installed in quite compact cases, provided there is sufficient available length.
231mm - 270mm: Medium-length cards. They are compatible with many cases, but it is necessary to check the available space inside them.
271mm - 300mm: Relatively long graphics cards. Check whether your case supports them together with the front fans or the radiator.
301mm - 330mm: Large graphics cards that require a case with increased available space for the GPU and sufficient clearance from the front cooling.
Over 330mm: Very large graphics cards. Careful checking of GPU clearance, internal layout, and space for power cables is required.
The minimum power that the system’s power supply must provide for the graphics card to operate correctly and stably, according to the manufacturer’s requirements.
