Sony PCV-RS400 Video Card
Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as a separate video card, in general. Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a graphics card to be added to the system. Dedicated video cards are required for high-end games on the 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, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place.
Some clues the display adapter will die soon
- The monitor depicts colors that are all wrong
- The Sony PCV-RS400 reboots when beginning a game
- The display does not come on when booting up
- A driver for the video card cannot install correctly
