Lenovo ThinkServer 1100 Video Card
All video cards processes graphics and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. 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. Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as a separate video card, in general.
Main clues the video card will need replacing
- The graphics on your screen depicts nothing
- The PC crashes when starting a graphic intensive program
- The display does not show up when booting up
- The video card driver has issues installing fully
