Lenovo ThinkCentre 9087 Video Card
A dedicated graphics card is pretty much required for high-end games on the desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Integrated video cards are almost never as good as a separate video card, in general. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a video card to be installed. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes the input and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you.
