Lenovo ThinkCentre 8187 Video Card
All video cards processes graphics and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. A dedicated graphics card is typically a required piece of hardware for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Integrated video cards will never be better than dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second.
