Sony PCV-R556DS Video Card
A dedicated graphics card is required for high-end games on the desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. Integrated video cards are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a video card to be added to the system. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second.
Important hints the display adapter is in need of replacing
- The graphics on your screen depicts bits and pieces of the desktop
- The PC reboots when beginning a game
- The display does not show up when starting the computer
- The video card driver does not seem to install properly
