Lenovo IdeaCentre A310 Video Card
A dedicated graphics card is required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A graphics card processes graphics and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where you can see the results. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than a separate video card, in general. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed.
Major indications of a dying video card
- The graphics on your screen depicts lines
- The computer restarts when beginning a game
- Nothing seems to show up as you attempt to boot up
- A driver for the video card has problems installing like it should
