Lenovo ThinkCentre 7479 Video Card
Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed. 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. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. All video cards processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Integrated display adapters are almost never as good as a separate video card, in general. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield.
Major symptoms of a faulty display adapter
- The graphics on your screen produces lines
- The desktop freezes when starting a graphic intensive program
- The screen does not always turn on when starting up
- A driver for the video card fails to install properly
