Lenovo 3000 9687 Video Card
There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. A dedicated graphics card is usually necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Integrated video cards are not as good as a separate video card, in general.
