Lenovo X3200 Video Card
At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A graphics card processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be added to the system. Dedicated video cards are usually necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general.
Hints of a barely functioning graphics card
- The monitor shows colors that are all wrong
- The computer freezes when starting a graphic intensive program
- The display does not turn on as you attempt to boot up
- A driver for the video card has issues installing all the way
