Assignment 3 task 2

My friend has started using her computer for gaming and there is slow response times and poor video she has asked that I help her improve the quality of her gaming experience so I will suggest a few things that may help her with her problems

Firstly I would suggest a graphics card. A graphics card is installed into a computer and is responsible for rendering the image that appears on the screen. Graphics cards can cost from £20 to £2400. I would suggest a graphics card because it is great for gaming and video also it will improve the overall gaming experience. A graphics card can make your images more HD (High Definition) and is popular for mainstream gaming.

I have chosen a graphics card which costs £269 and would improve my friends quality of gaming as it is 2GB of memory which helps give good resolution thus realistic graphics.





 
Secondly I would suggest a new monitor. A monitor displays graphics and is like a TV but displays the graphics better. A monitor with good resolution is also needed because it will sharpen and brighten the image which appears on screen. A monitor with HD (high definition) will improve the graphics because they will be more defined also a she should get a monitor which is a suitable size such as 22”-24” is perfect for gaming.



I have chosen a monitor which costs £99.99 and will improve my friends quality of gaming because the monitors an appropriate size and also has response time 5ms 






 
Thirdly I would suggest a new ISP. An ISP (internet service provider) is a company that provides your access to the internet. This will improve the performance of the game. I would recommend a service provider that offers around 30 MB speed so that you’re gaming is faster and better.  



I have chosen the ISP with 30MB which costs £5 per month. It would be suitable for my friend

Finally I would suggest a RAM. A RAM is random access memory, it is computer storage. I would suggest this because a memory upgrade can make your computer run far better. It over speeds your media for faster write times and would be useful for storing you’re saved games so that you can play much more.



I have chosen a 4GB RAM which cost £54.99
