Lenovo NetVista 2292 Video Card
Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. A dedicated graphics card is necessary for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. All video cards processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be installed. Integrated display adapters will never be better than a separate video card, in general.
Simple indications of a bad graphics card
- Your display produces bits and pieces of the desktop
- The desktop reboots when starting a game
- The screen does not always turn on as you attempt to boot up
