Sony VPCL23AFX Video Card
Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. A dedicated graphics card is required for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Integrated display adapters are not as good as a separate video card, generally speaking. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. A graphics card processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be added to the system.
Some warnings of an unhealthy display adapter
- Your display depicts bits and pieces of the desktop
- The computer freezes when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The screen does not always come on when booting up
- The video card driver fails to install correctly
