Sony VGC-LS32E Video Card
Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Integrated video cards will never be better than a separate video card, generally speaking. All video cards processes the input and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. Dedicated video cards are required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard.
Symptoms of a declining desktop video card
- The graphics on your screen produces stretched or elongated pictures
- Your Sony freezes when beginning a game
