Lenovo ThinkCentre 8804 Video Card
There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be added to the system. Integrated video cards are not as good as dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. A dedicated graphics card is necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. All video cards processes the input and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you.
