Lenovo ThinkServer RD550 Video Card
Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. Integrated video cards are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. A dedicated graphics card is required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place.
Main clues the video graphics card should need replacing
- Your display displays bits and pieces of the desktop
- Your Lenovo reboots when starting a game
- Nothing seems to turn on when starting the computer
- The video card driver has problems installing like it should
