Lenovo ThinkCentre 7347 Video Card
Integrated display adapters will never be better than a separate video card, in general. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. All video cards computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. A dedicated graphics card is usually necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard.
