Dell PowerEdge 2800 Video Card
Integrated display adapters are not as good as a separate video card, in general. Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. A dedicated graphics card is usually necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a graphics card to be added to the system. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place.
What warnings are present when my graphics card is about to go out?
- Your display produces stretched or elongated pictures
- Your Dell crashes when starting a game
- Nothing seems to come on when starting the computer
- The video card driver has problems installing like it should
