Dell PowerEdge R710 Video Card
Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, generally speaking. There are two types 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. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. All video cards computes and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a video card to be added to the system.

- Your display displays nothing
