Lenovo ThinkCentre 5061 Video Card
A dedicated graphics card is required for high-end games on the desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a dedicated video card to be installed. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. There are really only two kinds of graphic 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.
Elements of an ailing graphics card
- The monitor displays fragmented images
- The computer restarts when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The screen does not always come on when booting up
- The video card driver cannot install fully
