Lenovo ThinkCentre 9644 Video Card
Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than a separate video card, in general. Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. A dedicated graphics card is necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. There are really only two kinds of video 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. All video cards processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second.
Simple indications of a weakening display adapter

- Your Lenovo restarts when starting a game
- The screen does not always come on when starting up
- A driver for the video card has problems installing like it should
