Lenovo ThinkCentre 6175 Video Card
Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A dedicated graphics card is pretty much required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than a separate video card, in general. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be added to the system. All video cards computes and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you.
