Lenovo ThinkCentre 6075 Video Card
Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes the input and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you. Almost all newer desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a graphics card to be added to the system. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, generally speaking. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place.
