Graphic Cards

FAQs

1. How often do you update your graphics card inventory with the latest models?
Vektra typically updates its video graphic cards inventory based on product releases and availability. Major manufacturers like Nvidia and AMD release new models periodically and inventories can depend on factors such as product release cycles, Market Demand, Availability, Promotions & Sales 

2. Explanation of graphics card specifications and what they mean for performance.

GPU Model is the chip at the heart of the graphics card. Different GPU Models offer varying levels of performance. 

Core clock Speed represents the frequency at which the GPU's cores operate. Higher clock rate, better the performance. 

Memory type & size is used to store textures, shaders & other graphic data. 

Memory Clock determines how quickly the VRAM can transfer data to and from the GPU.

Memory Bus width is measured in bits which determines the bandwith available for data transfer between GPU & VRAM.

CUDA Cores for Nvidia / Stream Processors for AMD are the individual processing units within the GPU. A higher Cuda Core or stream processors generally indicates better parallel processing capabilities which can lead to improved performance.

TPD (Thermal Design Power) represents the maximum amount of heat generated by the graphics card under typical workloads. 

Connectivity & outputs options include HDMI, DisplayPort & DVI Ports. 

Cooling Solution help dissipate heat generated by the GPU during operation. Efficient cooling solution can maintain stable performance.

Additional Features invlude features such as ray tracing support, AI-based enhancements or software optimisation

3. What are the best practices for graphics card maintenance and longevity?
Keep your graphics card clean from dust, monitor temperatures, ensure good airflow, avoid aggressive overclocking, update drivers regularly, use a proper power supply, handle with care, conduct routine checks, and store safely when not in use to maximize longevity and performance.

4. What to consider when buying a graphics card for video editing?
Consider the card's VRAM size, CUDA cores (for NVIDIA) or Stream Processors (for AMD), memory bandwidth, and compatibility with editing software for smooth performance in video editing tasks

5. How much graphic card is enough for video editing?

The amount of graphics card (GPU) you need for video editing depends on several factors including the resolution of your videos, the complexity of your editing tasks, and the software you're using. However, for most casual to moderate video editing tasks, a mid-range GPU with at least 4GB of VRAM should suffice. If you're working with higher resolutions like 4K or beyond, or you're doing more intensive editing work such as color grading and effects-heavy projects, you may benefit from a higher-end GPU with more VRAM (8GB or higher). Ultimately, it's essential to balance your budget with your performance needs when selecting a graphics card for video editing.
