Asus EB1030-B001L Video Card
Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes the input and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. A dedicated graphics card is necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed.
Warnings the video card should be replaced
- The monitor produces stretched or elongated pictures
- The desktop restarts when beginning a game
- Nothing seems to come on when starting up
- A driver for the video card cannot install like it should
