Sony VGC-RA830G Video Card
A graphics card computes and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a graphics card to be added to the system. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. A dedicated graphics card is pretty much required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Integrated video cards are almost never as good as a separate video card, generally speaking.
What to see if the graphics card is in need of a replacement?
- The monitor produces nothing
- Your Sony restarts when starting a game
- The display does not turn on as you boot the PC
- The driver has problems installing fully
