Lenovo ThinkCentre 8088 Video Card
Integrated display adapters will never be better than dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. A video card processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results.
