Fujitsu PRIMERGY TX150 S4 Video Card
Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. All video cards processes the input and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Integrated video cards are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, in general.
Some clues the video card is on its last leg
- The graphics on your screen shows stretched or elongated pictures
- The desktop restarts when starting a game
- The screen does not always come on as you boot the PC
- The video card driver cannot install fully
