Lenovo ThinkCentre A720 Video Card
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. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. Almost all newer desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be installed. Dedicated video cards are necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. A video card processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you.
Signs the video card is in dire need of a replacement
- The graphics on your screen displays stretched or elongated pictures
- The PC restarts when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The screen does not always come on when booting up
- The driver cannot install properly
