Lenovo 3822 Video Card
Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be installed. Dedicated video cards are required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. All video cards processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than dedicated graphic cards, in general.
Some clues the display adapter is in need of replacing
- The graphics on your screen shows weird colors or images
- The desktop crashes when beginning a game
- Nothing seems to turn on when starting up
- The driver fails to install all the way
