Compaq ProLiant DL585 G2 Video Card
Dedicated video cards are necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. A video card computes and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed. Integrated video cards will never be better than a separate video card, generally speaking. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place.
