Sony PCV-RX881 Video Card
Integrated display adapters are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, generally speaking. A dedicated graphics card is required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. A video card processes the input 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 video card to be added to the system. 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 two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed.
What are the signs that the graphics card is failing?
- The monitor displays bits and pieces of the desktop
- The desktop restarts when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The display does not come on as you attempt to boot up
- The video card driver fails to install correctly
