Dell XPS 8300 Video Card
Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a graphics card to be added to the system. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A video card processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. A dedicated graphics card is necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general.
