Lenovo ThinkCentre M58 Video Card
Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Dedicated video cards are required for high-end games on the desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Integrated video cards are not as good as a dedicated video card, in general. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. A video card computes and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results.
Signs of an unhealthy desktop video card
- Your display produces bits and pieces of the desktop
