Quick question for you all, a family member is thinking about updating to a 1440p monitor. However what they have in their system is a Sapphire R7 250 2GB card.(amazon link: here is the exact card) This will be used for non gaming applications...well if you consider Angry birds a game...maybe. 

 

Anyway does this card seem fine for non gaming applications?

 

Thanks in advance!

For non-gaming, it will be fine. Most iGPUs will be fine so long as they support it.

ofcourse. it will look great for everything and maybe if someone wants to use it for light gaming i think it will be ok too.
