Apple Power Macintosh 6400 Video Card
Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes the input and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where you can see the results. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Integrated display adapters are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. A dedicated graphics card is usually necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a graphics card to be installed. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place.
