Lenovo ThinkCentre 7577 Video Card
Integrated display adapters will never be better than dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Almost all newer desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be installed. A dedicated graphics card is required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A graphics card processes graphics and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results.
Signals the video card will not live much longer
- The graphics on your screen shows vertical or striped lines
- Your Lenovo crashes when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- Nothing seems to turn on as you boot the PC
- A driver for the video card does not seem to install correctly
