Lenovo IdeaCentre Flex 20 Video Card
Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for high-end games on the desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Most new desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a video card to be added to the system. All video cards processes the input and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. 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. Integrated display adapters will never be better than a dedicated video card, in general.
