Lenovo IdeaCentre B505 Video Card
Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. A dedicated graphics card is pretty much required for high-end games on the desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a dedicated video card to be added to the system. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than a separate video card, generally speaking. A video card processes the input and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where you can see the results.
Some clues the display adapter will not live much longer
- The monitor depicts weird colors or images
- The computer restarts when starting a game
- Nothing seems to turn on when booting up
- A driver for the video card fails to install correctly
