Dell PowerEdge R510 Video Card
Dedicated video cards are usually necessary for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as a dedicated video card, generally speaking. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be added to the system. All video cards processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you.
Subtle hints your display card needs replacing
- The graphics on your screen shows bits and pieces of the desktop
- Your Dell crashes when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The display does not turn on as you attempt to boot up
- The driver has issues installing like it should
