Gateway 9210 Video Card
Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. 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 graphics card processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. A dedicated graphics card is required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be added to the system. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as a separate video card, in general.
Important signs your desktop graphics card needs replacing ASAP
- The graphics on your screen depicts colors that are all wrong
- Your Gateway restarts when starting a graphic intensive program
- Nothing seems to turn on as you boot the PC
- A driver for the video card has issues installing correctly
