Three Things You Need to Know Before You Decide to Buy Your Computer – Part 2

Third, if you buy a computer mainly for graphic purposes, it is better if you buy one whose graphic cards are not integrated. The latest games need a computer with dedicated graphic card to play. To find out whether a computer has an integrated graphic card or not, look at the back of the CPU. If the monitor cable is plugged vertical, then it has an integrated graphic card. If the port is horizontal, then it has a dedicated graphic card.To get a better speed, you will also need at least Core2Duo processor and 4 gigabytes of RAM.

When you finally enter the store to buy your computer, hold on to the specification you have had in mind. Do not give in to the sales representative’s persuasion to buy the latest high-powered version of computer when you only need a basic one. Ask the sales representative to explain the specification of each computer and make sure you choose the right computer to buy.
