Dell PowerEdge 1850 Video Card
All video cards processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. A dedicated graphics card is required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be installed. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than a separate video card, generally speaking. 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.
Indications your desktop graphics card will eventually need to be replaced
- The graphics on your screen displays colors that are all wrong
- Your Dell freezes when starting a game
- The screen does not always show up when starting the computer
- The video card driver cannot install correctly
