Sony PCV-J200 Video Card
Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a graphics card to be added to the system. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. Integrated video cards are not as good as a separate video card, in general. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry.
Major signs your display card will not last the year
- The graphics on your screen shows fragmented images
- The desktop crashes when beginning a game
- The screen does not always come on when starting the computer
- A driver for the video card has issues installing like it should
