Graphics Card undoubtedly is important especially when graphics design and gaming is the target of yours. Surely as a gamer you want to see the best visual on the monitor as possible.
By using a good component for the computer, undoubtedly you can get higher frame rate and better experience. Lag is enemy of every gamers and they will do anything to reduce the annoying lag.
Surely if you are not happy with the current on-board gpu, you are recommended to buy the external one. And inside here we are gonna show the important factors to see should you want to upgrade toward the better component.
The external Graphics Card is not a new thing for gamers, but the problem sometimes is they might buy too strong component or too weak. Furthermore, buying GTX 2080 is not recommended if your monitor only supports up to 768p or 900p resolution.
Between AMD Radeon or Nvidia it's pretty interesting to see what will suit you so keep on reading and increase your knowledge for this matter.
Seeing the max TDP is a wise thing, and remember if a good Low Power Graphics Card only requires not too strong power supply obviously. Which means you can run GT 1030, for example with 400W rated PSU. Make sure you buy only from reputable brand. And the PSU within the case might not sufficient for distributing enough power to your latest component.
Notice the DDR type of the card to use ranging from DDR2 to DDR5. Surely you must avoid to buy the DDR2 type which is still used by awful Nvidia GT 210. DDR3 like GT 710 is still reliable for 720p resolutions though, however not all games are able to run as it should by the card especially high-demanding 3D games like The Witcher 3 and Resident Evil 3 Remake. Of course if you don't mind playing with low frame rate then you can still choose them.
Bandwidth play the important role here as well. As you can see from the paragraph above, GT 210 and GT 710 have lower bandwidth, therefore it's suggested for gamers to get GT 730 DDR5 which is probably the weakest DDR5 available but still worth for 720p resolution even higher.
For games whose budget is number one priority then never forget to see DDR3 Power Graphics as the option. You might not play games with the best visual, but surely you can still get relatively better fps for gaming. For better option then GT 1030 is pretty much enough for you. This gpu is affordable yet good enough to run games with max visual on most games for 720p and 768p.
Most importantly get the one depending on monitor resolution. As mentioned above, it will be a waste if you buy GTX 2080 for a monitor that supports 768p only. Many better alternative in your case like GT 1030 or the cheaper GT 730 (DDR5). Moreover, don't forget to get GTX 1050 as the most exciting choice which is also ideal for enthusiasts for 1080p.
