Dell Precision 370 Video Card
Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A dedicated graphics card is necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Almost all newer desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a graphics card to be added to the system.
