Asus CM6330 Video Card
Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, generally speaking. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. A dedicated graphics card is pretty much required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. All video cards processes the input and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results.
