Sony PCV-L640 Video Card
Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. All video cards processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, in general. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required 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 cards are built-in to the computer itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed.

- The desktop crashes when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- Nothing seems to turn on as you attempt to boot up
