Acer AcerPower F2B Video Card
Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Integrated video cards are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. A graphics card computes and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. Dedicated video cards are necessary for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard.
Key symptoms of a poorly working desktop video card
- The graphics on your screen depicts colors that are all wrong
- The computer restarts when starting a graphic intensive program
- The screen does not always come on when starting the computer
- A driver for the video card cannot install fully
