Lenovo E50-05 Video Card
There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. A graphics card processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Almost all newer desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be added to the system. Integrated video cards are not as good as a dedicated video card, in general. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. A dedicated graphics card is necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield.
