Sony PCV-RZ45G Video Card
Integrated display adapters are not as good as a dedicated video card, in general. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A graphics card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. A dedicated graphics card is usually necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be added to the system.
Important signs your desktop graphics card has very little life left
- The monitor produces colors that are all wrong
- The PC restarts when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The screen does not always show up when starting the computer
- A driver for the video card cannot install like it should
