Lenovo ThinkCentre 4222 Video Card
Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be installed. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Dedicated video cards are usually necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. A graphics card processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. There are two types 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. Integrated video cards will never be better than dedicated graphic cards, in general.
Important hints the video card has to be replaced
- The graphics on your screen depicts bits and pieces of the desktop
- Your Lenovo freezes when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The screen does not always come on as you attempt to boot up
- The video card driver fails to install all the way
