Sony PCV-RX891 Video Card
Almost all newer desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a graphics card to be installed. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes the input and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Integrated display adapters will never be better than a separate video card, generally speaking. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for high-end games on the desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place.
How do you know if your Sony video card is about to go out?
- The monitor produces bits and pieces of the desktop
- Your Sony reboots when starting a graphic intensive program
- The display does not come on when starting the computer
- The video card driver fails to install correctly
