Having trouble remembering the Video Card you purchased a few years ago and too lazy to open up your case? Are you curious on which specifications to look for when purchasing a new Video Card for your desktop computer? Well it's extremely simple to find your Video Card Specs from your desktop computers main screen. NOTE: This is used for Windows XP, Windows Vista (home, business, 32/64-bit, Premium) as well as Windows 7.
Open the Run dialog.
A quick way to do this is to press the Windows key and the R key. You can also just type run into the Windows Search bar at the bottom-left corner.
Type "dxdiag" and click "OK."
This opens the DirectX diagnostic tool. This box will have many tabs on it.
Click the "Display" tab.
You'll see this tab at the top of the box. This will change tabs to Display that will show you all of the display components of your computer.
Find the video card specs under "Device."
The "Device" area is at the top-left corner. Here you'll see all of your graphics card specifications, as well as which drivers are currently installed for that graphics card.
