Lenovo ThinkCentre 3660 Video Card
Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. A dedicated graphics card is pretty much required for high-end games on the desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Integrated video cards are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard.
