Lenovo ThinkCentre 7844 Video Card
There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Dedicated video cards are usually necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. A graphics card computes and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you. Integrated display adapters will never be better than a separate video card, in general. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a graphics card to be installed on the motherboard.
Signs of a bad display adapter
- The graphics on your screen produces nothing
- The Lenovo ThinkCentre 7844 restarts when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- Nothing seems to show up when booting up
- The driver has issues installing fully
