Lenovo ThinkCentre 9018 Video Card
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. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. Integrated display adapters are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, generally speaking. A video card processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. Almost all newer desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a graphics card to be added to the system. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield.
Easy warnings the video graphics card should need replacing
- Your display shows stretched or elongated pictures
- The PC reboots when beginning a game
- The screen does not always turn on as you attempt to boot up
- A driver for the video card does not seem to install correctly
