Dell OptiPlex XE Video Card

At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be added to the system. Dedicated video cards are usually necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Integrated video cards are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general.
