Lenovo ThinkCentre M57 Video Card
Almost all newer desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be installed on the motherboard. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A video card processes the input and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Integrated display adapters will never be better than a dedicated video card, in general. A dedicated graphics card is pretty much required for high-end games on the desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately.
Important hints your display card is in dire need of a replacement
- The monitor depicts bits and pieces of the desktop
- Your Lenovo reboots when beginning a game
- The screen does not always turn on as you boot the PC
- The video card driver cannot install all the way
