How do you know if a graphics card is good?

Answer 1

the answer to this question is entirely dependent on what you want to do with your computer. for instance for web browsing on board graphics is good. basically your graphics card is good if you get good frame rates (typically 30 ish) in whatever application you want it to run. for infromation on graphics cards you don't already own refer to forms and benchmarks to see if the card you want will provide the performance you want. if you would like to know what games can run on your computer Google "can you run it?".
