Notes And Tips: Target a graphics card upgrade to provide the required performance at the native resolution, for example 1680x1050 or 1920x1200, of your LCD monitor. Be advised that additional system components, including the Power Supply Unit (PSU), may need to be upgraded when upgrading to a more powerful GPU. Also, strive for a Balanced PC when upgrading to a more powerful GPU or CPU.
