Lenovo H50-55 Video Card
Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a video card to be added to the system. A dedicated graphics card is typically a required piece of hardware for high-end games on the desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. A graphics card processes graphics and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where you can see the results. Integrated display adapters are not as good as a separate video card, generally speaking. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. There are really only two kinds of graphic 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.
Easy warnings of an unhealthy display card
- The monitor produces nothing
- The desktop crashes when starting a game
- Nothing seems to come on as you boot the PC
- The driver cannot install correctly
