Lenovo ThinkCentre S51-8173 Video Card

Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than a dedicated video card, generally speaking. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be added to the system. A video card processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you.

What warnings should I watch out for to know if my desktop video card needs to be replaced?
