Acer Altos G530 Video Card
Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a video card to be added to the system. Integrated display adapters are not as good as a separate video card, in general. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. All video cards processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately.
Indications the video graphics card is not going to last much longer
- Your display displays vertical or striped lines
- Your Acer reboots when beginning a game
- The display does not come on as you boot the PC
- The driver does not seem to install fully
