Acer AcerPower SX Video Card
Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for high-end games on the desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. A graphics card processes the input and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Integrated video cards are not as good as a dedicated video card, in general.
Major symptoms of a failing desktop video card
- Your display produces stretched or elongated pictures
- The PC restarts when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The display does not turn on as you boot the PC
- A driver for the video card does not seem to install all the way
