Intel SR2500AL Video Card
Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be installed. Dedicated video cards are usually necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than a dedicated video card, generally speaking. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. There are two types of video 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.
Major warnings of an ineffective video card
- The graphics on your screen shows fragmented images
- The computer restarts when starting a graphic intensive program
- The screen does not always show up as you boot the PC
- A driver for the video card does not seem to install all the way
