1 Installing A Graphics Card
Callum Hibbert

2 Research Start by removing the side of your computer's case, then locate and remove your current graphics card. Some PCs will not have a graphics card installed. Instead, you need to locate the PCI-E x16 slot closest to the heat sink of your processor. This will either be the first or second expansion slot on your motherboard.

3 do you need a driver to install a graphics card
You will have to download the latest driver so then the graphics card can be installed. Without the driver the graphics card wouldn't work because the driver is it’s main supply for energy to make it work.

4 Minimum specification
1.Unscrew slots. Typically, a graphics card is not just plugged into a PCI-e slot on the motherboard, but it is also secured with a screw at the backside of the case. 2.Unplug power connectors. The more powerful a graphics card is, the more power it will need to work. 3.Plug out, Plug in. 1.Motherboard 2.Central Processing Unit (CPU) 3.Random Access Memory (RAM) modules 4.Power Supply Unit (PSU) 5.Storage in the form of either Hard Disk Drives (HDD) or Solid State Drives (SSD) 6.Graphics Card containing the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU)* *This is optional, as some systems might have an integrated graphics chipset, which means it is integrated on the motherboard or in the CPU. 7.Cables, LOTS of cables.
