Lenovo NetVista 6793 Video Card
Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. All video cards computes and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where you can see the results. Integrated video cards are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, in general. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry.
