Lenovo ThinkCentre 1663 Video Card
Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a graphics card to be installed on the motherboard. Integrated display adapters are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, in general. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. A video card processes the input and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you. 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. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second.
