Video requirements:
You need to match the capabilities of your monitor with that of your system's video card. Almost all systems use PCI-Express-based video cards. The PCI Express (x16) graphics interface provides four times the total peak bandwidth and two times the unidirectional bandwidth of AGP graphics. When you select a video card, be sure it offers resolution and color depth capabilities that complement your monitor. In most cases, if the video card is capable of displaying a resolution of 1280x1024 and 32-bit color, it will be more than sufficient for most business-based application. However, if your users' tasks include video editing, modeling, graphic design, or other image-intensive activities, double-check their video card requirements before you make a purchase.
