Lenovo ThinkCentre 6065 Video Card
Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Integrated display adapters will never be better than dedicated graphic cards, in general. A video card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. A dedicated graphics card is necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry.
Subtle hints your desktop graphics card should need replacing
- The graphics on your screen displays fragmented images
- The PC restarts when starting a graphic intensive program
- Nothing seems to show up when starting the computer
- The video card driver does not seem to install fully
