Lenovo ThinkCentre 7611 Video Card
Integrated video cards will never be better than a dedicated video card, in general. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be installed. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. A dedicated graphics card is required for high-end games on the desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes graphics and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results.
