Dell PowerEdge T310 Video Card
Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as a separate video card, in general. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A video card processes graphics and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a graphics card to be installed on the motherboard. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed.
Major warnings your desktop graphics card will not last the year
- The graphics on your screen shows nothing
- The desktop reboots when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- Nothing seems to turn on when booting up
- A driver for the video card has problems installing like it should
