Lenovo ThinkCentre 0844 Video Card
Integrated video cards will never be better than a dedicated video card, generally speaking. Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be added to the system. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for high-end games on the desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. A graphics card processes the input and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you.
Symptoms of an ailing display card
- Your display shows nothing
- The PC freezes when starting a graphic intensive program
- The screen does not always come on as you attempt to boot up
- The video card driver has problems installing properly
