Lenovo ThinkCentre 3147 Video Card
At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. A graphics card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. Integrated display adapters are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. Dedicated video cards are required for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be added to the system.
What to see if the Lenovo video card needs replacing?
- Your display shows colors that are all wrong
- The computer crashes when beginning a game
- The screen does not always come on as you attempt to boot up
- A driver for the video card cannot install fully
