Dell Dimension 5000 Video Card
Dedicated video cards are necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be added to the system. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. Integrated video cards are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. There are really only two kinds 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. A video card processes graphics and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you.
Indications the display adapter will die soon
- The monitor depicts stretched or elongated pictures
- The computer freezes when starting a game
- The display does not show up when booting up
- A driver for the video card has problems installing fully
