Lenovo ThinkCentre 8155 Video Card
Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Integrated display adapters are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. Dedicated video cards are necessary for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. All video cards computes and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where you can see the results. Almost all newer desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a graphics card to be installed on the motherboard.
