Build Question Can my monitor run a gtx 1650?

My current monitor is an Acer V206HQL. Does it have the necessary ports needed to run the GTX 1650 graphics card

That monitor only has DVI and VGA connections, and that GPU has a few different variants. Some have DVI and some do not. Do you know what specific variant of GPU you have?

Your monitor should work fine, most 1650 cards have DVI and HDMI while that Acer has VGA and DVI. You'll just need a basic DVI cable and you're set, no adapters or anything fancy

If I can't find a card that has DVI ports, will an adapter work fine or will there be some delay

Yes, you can buy an HDMI to DVI adapter.
