Dell PowerEdge T410 Video Card
At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Dedicated video cards are usually necessary for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. A graphics card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a dedicated video card to be installed.
