Features to consider when looking for a Black Friday GPU deal

There’s a few things you’ll want to be aware of when going for a new GPU this Black Friday. They include – but aren’t necessarily limited to – memory/performance, space/form factor and benchmarking.

Let’s cover those three in more detail:

Memory/Performance

We won’t go too technical here, but generally speaking, having plenty of VRAM (video random access memory) is a good thing. It’s the part of the card that helps ease the strain between the GPU and the CPU.

A nice amount of VRAM will mean your card can process the information faster, with the upshot allowing you to run things at higher quality and at a higher resolution.

Space/Form Factor

First and foremost, you’ll want to make sure your new card fits in your PC. It’s all well and good having a monster – but a monster that won’t go in its kennel is just a fancy circuit board with lights.

Then you have to consider cooling – graphics cards often use a lot of power, which in turn generates a lot of heat. Make sure you’ve got enough space to provide adequate cooling, or your new purchase could burn out very quickly and literally.

Benchmarks

It can be daunting with all the different models and types – but benchmarking should help you determine the wheat from the chaff.

Things like clock speed, number of cores, VRAM and more can all impact your graphics card’s performance in different ways; so be sure to do your research before you commit.

A good graphics card purchase could last you years, if you make a smart purchase.
