Compaq Presario 4000 Video Card
A dedicated graphics card is pretty much required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes graphics and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results.
What to see if the video graphics card is in need of a replacement?
- The graphics on your screen produces vertical or striped lines
- The PC restarts when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The screen does not always come on when booting up
- The driver fails to install all the way
