Dell Vostro 260 Video Card
Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. 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. A dedicated graphics card is necessary for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Integrated video cards are almost never as good as a separate video card, generally speaking. A video card processes the input and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you.
Major symptoms the video card needs replacing
- Your display produces fragmented images
- Your Dell freezes when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The display does not come on as you boot the PC
- The video card driver has issues installing fully
