Inside of every computer is a web of components that work together to — quite miraculously — spit out Counter Strike onto your monitor.

Some of them help you multitask, while others do a bit of everything.

But there is one key piece if you’re trying to game. This single item can make or break your entire rig — your graphics card.

They’re the most sought after piece of hardware in the PC gaming world and, regardless of how clouted certain graphics cards may be, some people don’t even understand how they work.

So we’re going to break down what exactly a GPU does when you hop in a server. How it actually works, and perhaps the most ever-burning question: does having a good graphics card actually help you play better?
