Samsung DP700A7D Video Card
There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, generally speaking. A graphics card processes the input and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. A dedicated graphics card is typically a required piece of hardware for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second.

- Your Samsung freezes when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
