With the launch of the new generation of game consoles "Sony PlayStation 5" and "Microsoft Xbox - Series X", many gamers wanted to upgrade their gaming computers, so that new games benefit from the power of hardware components in the computer.

Here, the German technology portal "Games D" offers some tips and instructions for users who want to buy new gaming computers.

Healer

The processor - or what is known as the central processing unit - is the beating heart of gaming computers;

It manages all basic computing operations, gaming computers must have at least a quad-core processor of the latest generation, and Intel and AMD provide six and eight core processors or more for gaming computers.

Graphics card

The graphics card is one of the important hardware components in gaming computers, because it is related to the quality of the images formed on the screen, and the appropriate graphics card is linked to the requirements of the user, and in the case of a single Full HD screen 1920 x 1080 pixels, there are no plans If the future is to buy higher resolution screens, then low-cost graphics cards can suffice.

And when you want to run screens with a higher resolution, you need to buy stronger graphics cards for gaming computers;

WQHD screens with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels require a medium-class graphics card, and in the case of purchasing luxury screens with a resolution of 4K (4K) (3840 x 2160), then high-end graphics cards must be purchased As expensive as the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 card.

RAM

Random access memory - or as you know the acronym "RAM" - stores information in a temporary way, and this memory is the basis for the work of the computer, in addition to that it helps the computer to work on many data at the same time.

Opinions are divided about the amount of RAM that gaming computers should have.

German experts recommended that the RAM should not be less than 16 GB, and if the user wants to buy a computer that will last with him for a long time, he can buy a model with 32 GB of RAM.

Hard Disk

Modern games such as "Call of Duty" or "Baldur's Gate 3" need a large storage capacity, and the size of advanced games often exceeds 100 gigabytes, and the German technology portal advised relying on SSDs SSD's are fast in installing the operating system, and games also benefit from extremely short load times, so the developer of the action-adventure game Cyberpunk 2077 explicitly recommends the use of SSDs, but Since these types of hard disks are still very expensive, traditional hard disks can be relied on for storing photo and video contents or backing up data.

Solid state disks - sometimes called static or solid-state disks - are data storage disks in their solid state, which use “static random access memory” (SRAM) or “dynamic random access memory” (DRAM) technology to store data. It employs any moving mechanical parts, which distinguishes it from hard disks, giving it a longer life span and a higher speed of performance.
