Sony PCV-RS620G Video Card
Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. A dedicated graphics card is typically a required piece of hardware for high-end games on the desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. All video cards processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a video card to be added to the system.
Elements of a weak graphics card
- The monitor depicts lines
- The desktop freezes when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The screen does not always show up when booting up
- A driver for the video card has problems installing all the way
