Dell Precision Workstation 350 Video Card
Integrated display adapters are almost never as good as a separate video card, in general. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. 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. Dedicated video cards are usually necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. A graphics card processes the input and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a video card to be installed.
What warnings should I watch out for to know if my graphics card will soon go out?
- The monitor shows stretched or elongated pictures
- The PC crashes when beginning a game
- The display does not turn on when starting up
- The video card driver fails to install fully
