Lenovo ThinkCentre 5384 Video Card
Almost all newer 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 graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Integrated video cards are not as good as a dedicated video card, in general. A graphics card processes the input and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where you can see the results. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place.
What to see if the display card is failing?
- The monitor produces nothing
- Your Lenovo crashes when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The screen does not always come on when starting up
- The video card driver has problems installing fully
