CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 403

A user installed a new computer game. Upon starting the game, the user notices the frame rates are low. Which of the following should the user upgrade to resolve the issue?

Answer options

• A. Hard drive
• B. Graphics card
• C. Random-access memory
• D. Monitor

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The graphics card is responsible for rendering images and graphics in games, so upgrading it will directly improve frame rates. While a faster hard drive or more RAM may help overall performance, they do not specifically address low frame rates like a better graphics card does. The monitor does not affect the game's performance but only displays the output.
