Is my graphics card slowing my pc?

[fenchai]

Hi, I just bought a custom pc and it came with an intel core i5 3330 cpu + 8GB RAm + cheap motherboard AsRock H61M-DGS, now the pc runs good and my internet is fast, but when it comes to opening and loading web pages, youtube, google, etc.
it tends load very slow. Is this because of the GPU built inside the motherboard?
Do I need to buy a new one to make it faster or is another component slowing my pc?

I had a pc with an athlon II 4core. and 4gb ram, loading web pages was fast but on games it had the same problem, switching back to desktop and game was slow, then i changed the GPU(video card) it became faster to switch from window to window but due to a problem the whole pc exploded, so i got this pc instead.

Anyone can help i would be glad

Install latest Internet browser version.
Scan pc with antivirus for malware (these slow the pc a lot).If you don't have one install Microsoft security essentials(antivirus competely free that requires the least computing resources) or avast free antivirus

The whole PC exploded? What did you do son? Don't take this personally but, stay away from computers, they don't randomly "blow up." As to your problem, graphics will not affect the load times of internet pages on your PC, it is a combination between your net speeds, if you're connecting to your router wirelessly or not, and how the servers on their end are operating. You're not going to get huge boosts in internet browsing speeds by upgrading your card, web pages are simply not graphically intensive enough to warrant that.

Hi!, My pc was recently installed with windows 7 32bit so it is new and I have installed the newest Google Chrome browser. My pc is fast in everything but...
Its just that when opening chrome, it is fast but then the loading is very slow...but not very very slow, my old pc was faster than this one. should i install a new graphics card instead of using the integrated graphics card from this cheap motherboard?

Hi!, well it blew up literally xD. Because it was like 6 yeards old already but in those times, that pc was fast xD, due to the fact that I didnt buy a new battery backup, and my country's power supply is bad so they tend to have no power randomly and my pc always shut himself when no power, I did this several times like 100 times 🙁 so i think it didnt support so much destruction.... then board and cpu got burnt and there it is... pc destroyed basically.

Graphics? that's your internet, dude - Get your PCI-E card a new antenna or install a USB Wireless adapter, I got my PC yesterday and using the wireless adapter, sped up to 20Mbps from 4...You also have to make sure nothing is blocking the wireless receiver, especially metal objects. Run www.speedtest.net to see if it really is your computer.

Hi!, My internet is fast as always and my pc too, but it annoys me that when i open a new tab and i go to google.com or any other web page, it loads for 4 seconds, instead of .1 sec with google.com as it did with my old destroyed pc...

Do what I said and find out what's going on. The same thing happened with me yesterday and my wireless USB dongle for my new custom desktop. Obstructions form the wireless adapter can cause a whole world of problems, like I said, especially metal ones!

Hi, I think it is not my internet speed, it loads videos fast, everything is fast except when I load google.com and its web searcher... and for my own experience, getting a new graphics card, made me switch from in-game to my desktop faster... I think i need to but a graphics card..

Have you done anything I have suggested - I was not talking about the speed of the internet but the speed of the connection between your PCI-E card or Wireless USB adapter to your router.

i have nothing yet on my PCI-E card and I have the usual yellow or blue cable from router conected to PC. Download speed is as usual, and my ping is fine too..

Could just be your modem experiencing multiple connectivity issues, having wireless devices going through your router can also interrupt some input. But it certainly isn't your graphics card 😛

nah xD im not even using my router, its just there...so im going to cchange the card and then I will report if it improvess... ANyway thanks for answering. Im thinking on getting a Gt forgot it xD just a 1gb video card to make my screen better...

I has the same problem back in windows XP times...Good times...
I would load all pages fast but amd web page would take 4-5min to load.Idk why,maybe because I had nvidia gpu?It was strange.Anyway after some weeks and few updates the problem fixed on its own
