Lenovo ThinkCentre 7773 Video Card
A video card computes and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. 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. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be added to the system. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. Integrated display adapters will never be better than a dedicated video card, generally speaking. A dedicated graphics card is usually necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry.
Some clues the video graphics card needs replacing
- The graphics on your screen produces bits and pieces of the desktop
- The desktop reboots when starting a game
- The screen does not always come on when starting up
- The driver does not seem to install properly
