Acer Veriton 7500G Video Card
Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be installed on the motherboard. 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. Integrated display adapters will never be better than a dedicated video card, in general. Dedicated video cards are necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. A video card processes graphics and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you.
Important hints the video card is failing
- The monitor depicts vertical or striped lines
- The computer freezes when starting a game
- The screen does not always come on when booting up
- The video card driver has problems installing correctly
