Intel SE7221BK1-E Video Card
Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes graphics and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Integrated video cards are not as good as a separate video card, generally speaking. A dedicated graphics card is typically a required piece of hardware for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed.

- The graphics on your screen depicts fragmented images
- The Intel SE7221BK1-E freezes when starting a game
