Lenovo ThinkCentre 8194 Video Card
Almost all newer desktops will have at least one spot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Integrated video cards are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. A video card processes the input and sends the rendered images to a 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 dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed.
