Tyan Transport GX28 B2882 Video Card
There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Dedicated video cards are required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Integrated video cards are not as good as a separate video card, in general. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed.
Key symptoms of a poorly performing display adapter
- Your display depicts lines
- The desktop reboots when beginning a game
- Nothing seems to come on as you boot the PC
- A driver for the video card does not seem to install correctly
