Compaq Pro 4300 Video Card
There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. A dedicated graphics card is usually necessary for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A video card processes the input and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking.
Key indicators that my display card is not working properly?
- The monitor shows vertical or striped lines
- The computer freezes when starting a graphic intensive program
- The display does not show up when starting up
- The video card driver fails to install fully
