Lenovo H5S Video Card
At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes the input and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. Integrated video cards are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, generally speaking. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Dedicated video cards are usually necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard.
