Sony PCV-RZ34G Video Card
Integrated video cards are not as good as a separate video card, in general. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A graphics card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. A dedicated graphics card is required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a dedicated video card to be added to the system.
Major indications of a laboring display adapter
- The monitor depicts weird colors or images
- The computer freezes when beginning a game
- The screen does not always turn on when booting up
- A driver for the video card cannot install fully
