Tyan Transport GX21 B2735 Video Card
Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. There are really only two kinds 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 computes and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. Almost all newer desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard.
How do you know when your display card is about to stop working?
- Your display produces lines
- The computer restarts when trying to start up a graphic intensive game
- The display does not come on when booting up
- The video card driver fails to install properly
