What is a graphics card, pixel 1.1 or better.? Where would I find this information on product features when shoping on line. There are about 10-12 features,.but none say anything about pixel 1.1., Keep it simple, I am a very computer illiterate.

I simple words,graphic card is something that shows everything on your monitor

This is best site for the specs:

A graphics card is a componant for processing and displaying images on your monitor.

The feature you are referring to is probably Pixel Shading 1.1 or similar. Just about any newer graphics card will have that feature, which is probably why it isn't mentioned on the packaging… its a given, as the latest cards have PS 2.0 or 3.0 which means they also support the older 1.1.

Basically, just about any card should have it, but if you really want to be sure just contact the manufacturer/retailer.
