Apple Power Macintosh 7100-80 Video Card
Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as a dedicated video card, in general. Almost all newer desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. Dedicated video cards are required for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you.
Simple indications of a deteriorating desktop video card
- The monitor produces lines
- Your Apple crashes when starting a game
- Nothing seems to come on when booting up
- The video card driver cannot install properly
