Lenovo ThinkCentre 3243 Video Card
A video card processes the input and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Integrated display adapters will never be better than a dedicated video card, generally speaking. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be added to the system.
Subtle cues of an unhealthy video card
- The monitor depicts nothing
- The PC crashes when beginning a game
- The screen does not always show up as you attempt to boot up
- The video card driver cannot install like it should
