Lenovo ThinkStation 4262 Video Card
Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be added to the system. A dedicated graphics card is usually necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. There are two types 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. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Integrated display adapters are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, in general. A video card computes and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where you can see the results.
What to see if the desktop video card is about to go out?
- The graphics on your screen shows nothing
- The desktop crashes when starting a game
- Nothing seems to turn on as you boot the PC
- The video card driver does not seem to install fully
