Lenovo ThinkCentre 2800 Video Card
Integrated video cards are not as good as a dedicated video card, in general. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Most new desktops will have at least one spot 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. A graphics card processes the input and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. Dedicated video cards are required for high-end games on the desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry.
Subtle hints the display adapter has little time left
- The monitor depicts fragmented images
- The desktop crashes when starting a graphic intensive program
- Nothing seems to come on when starting the computer
- The driver cannot install correctly
