Dell Dimension 9100 Video Card
Today, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Dedicated video cards are required for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes the input and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a video card to be added to the system. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Integrated video cards will never be better than a dedicated video card, generally speaking.
Cues of an ineffective video graphics card
- The monitor produces weird colors or images
- The desktop reboots when starting a game
- The screen does not always show up when booting up
- The video card driver has issues installing correctly
