Sony PCV-RX650 Video Card
Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be added to the system. There are really only two kinds 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. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than dedicated graphic cards, in general. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. A graphics card processes the input and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. A dedicated graphics card is pretty much required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield.
Subtle cues of a defective desktop video card
- Your display displays lines
- Your Sony freezes when beginning a game
- The display does not show up as you attempt to boot up
- A driver for the video card cannot install like it should
