Lenovo ThinkCentre 9358 Video Card
Both an integrated and dedicated video card computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a video card to be installed on the motherboard. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. Integrated video cards will never be better than a separate video card, generally speaking.
