Apple MD771LL-A Video Card
Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. A dedicated graphics card is pretty much required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Integrated display adapters will never be better than a separate video card, generally speaking. All video cards processes graphics and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately.
Elements of an inadequate video card
- The graphics on your screen displays stretched or elongated pictures
- The desktop crashes when starting a graphic intensive program
- The screen does not always come on as you attempt to boot up
- The driver does not seem to install fully
