Sony VGC-LS25E Video Card
Almost all newer desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Both an integrated and dedicated video 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 graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking.
General indicators that your the video graphics card will not last the year
- The graphics on your screen shows colors that are all wrong
- The desktop restarts when starting a graphic intensive program
- Nothing seems to turn on as you attempt to boot up
- The driver does not seem to install correctly
