Lenovo 3000 9681 Video Card
A graphics card processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Integrated video cards will never be better than a dedicated video card, generally speaking. A dedicated graphics card is usually necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second.
What to see if the desktop video card is dying?
- The graphics on your screen shows bits and pieces of the desktop
- The Lenovo 3000 9681 crashes when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- Nothing seems to come on as you attempt to boot up
- The video card driver has issues installing all the way
