Acer Aspire T130 Video Card
A video card processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a video card to be installed. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. 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 will never be better than a dedicated video card, in general.

- Nothing seems to turn on when booting up
