Depending on the way you wanted this to be answered, GDDR3, and GDDR5 are both common types of graphics RAM. Or if your question was supposed to be asked a different way, most cards have dedicated video ram. This is helpful in gaming situations as most of the latest games require at least 1gig of dedicated vram in order to properly run at the highest settings. Remember not all cards are of the same architecture. If you see a $20 card with 1gig of video ram it's probably not the same as the $400 card with 1gig of video ram.

Yes it is.


How can RAM of PC be converted to graphics card RAM?

You can not convert the RAM that is on the PC to RAM for your graphics card. The only way to get RAM for a graphics card is to buy one that already has RAM on it. The graphics cards that have their own RAM are normally higher end ones that cost about $50-$70 for the cheapest ones.

If you have more ram does it help the graphics card?

no graphics cards have there own built in video ram The above answer is only partially correct. If a computer had onboard graphics, where there is no dedicated graphics card, then the graphics chip is on the motherboard itself. In this case, it will use the system RAM for memory. This can reduce the total amount available to the system. So if you have onboard graphics (no dedicated graphics card), then a dedicated GPU(graphics processing unit) could in fact increase available RAM. However, the difference is not likely to be large. RAM is cheap. Your best option is to buy more RAM for your system.

I have a DDR1 RAM in my PC and want to buy a graphics card Can I go for a DDR2 graphics card or should the RAM type in the graphics card match the RAM in the main memory of the PC?

Nope it doesn't matter what kind of ram you have in your graphics card as they are used for different things What does matter is what type of slots your computer has. Mine, for example, has slots only for PCI cards and I must buy PCI. You can find out what type of slots your computer has by calling TigerDirect. Start with what type of graphics card your computer can use.


Which hardware manages graphics and user commands for distribution to screen?

It is called a video card or graphics card. Video hardware can be integrated on the motherboard. This is usually called integrated graphics or on-board graphics & it maybe low-performance & undesirable for those wishing to run 3D applications. disabling of the integrated graphics chip is enabled when adding a higher-performance graphics card in the PCI Express slot or the older AGP slot. A dedicated ATI or nVidia graphics card has it's own RAM and Processor specifically for processing video images & thus offloads this work from the CPU and system RAM.
