Dell Studio XPS 435MT Video Card
Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes the input and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. A dedicated graphics card is necessary for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as a separate video card, in general.
Easy warnings of a poorly performing display card
- The graphics on your screen shows weird colors or images
- The computer freezes when starting a game
- Nothing seems to turn on as you attempt to boot up
- A driver for the video card has problems installing like it should
