Lenovo ThinkCentre 6074 Video Card
Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be added to the system. A graphics card processes graphics and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as a dedicated video card, generally speaking. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place.
Symptoms the display adapter needs replacing ASAP
- The monitor depicts bits and pieces of the desktop
- Your Lenovo restarts when starting a game
- The screen does not always turn on when starting the computer
- A driver for the video card does not seem to install fully
