Too PC-centric

This article could use a thorough revision to include graphics cards from other platforms than PC. Also, there is the issue that these are differentiated from integrated graphics which is not really useful. —DIYeditor (talk) 13:45, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I feel this article should be moved to a new article "Computer graphics card", that is "computer GC" should have a dedicated article (but not this one), while this should be more general. Setenzatsu.2 (talk) 03:29, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure there is any other kind of graphics card than a computer graphics card, but there is integrated graphics of all varieties, which are not cards, and there are graphics cards on many kinds of computers other than PC compatibles. —DIYeditor (talk) 12:57, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In consoles?

Not sure if it's the same thing, definitely falls under the same umbrella, but there were things like MPEG-2 video card add on for atari jaguar. The article is exclusively PC oriented. Setenzatsu.2 (talk) 03:23, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

is a computer expansion card? is it always?

integrated graphics: video hardware can be integrated into the motherboard, CPU... Can it then be called an expansion card?? Setenzatsu.2 (talk) 03:31, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

RAMDAC disappearing

Should be updated to say that it has firmly disappeared by now since about 2017, not just "starting to". -- J7n (talk) 12:11, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect or incomplete details

Some pictures are inacurrate, a gpu shown is the RX 6900 XT but is being claimed as a RTX 5090 as well as multiple details being incomplete in the History setcions. Sembilz (talk) 23:51, 13 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That's not a good reason to delete a bunch of content from the article, including several citations. MrOllie (talk) 02:16, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
