Lenovo ThinkCentre 8995 Video Card
Today, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. Dedicated video cards are required for high-end games on the desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. A video card processes the input and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where you can see the results. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a graphics card to be added to the system. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as a separate video card, generally speaking.
Important clues of a weak display card
- The graphics on your screen displays bits and pieces of the desktop
- The PC crashes when starting a graphic intensive program
- The display does not show up when booting up
- The video card driver has problems installing correctly
