Dell Dimension 9200 Video Card
Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. A graphics card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be installed on the motherboard. Integrated video cards are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately.
Important hints your desktop graphics card has to be replaced
- Your display displays colors that are all wrong
- Your Dell crashes when beginning a game
- Nothing seems to come on as you attempt to boot up
- A driver for the video card does not seem to install fully
