Lenovo ThinkCentre 9708 Video Card
A dedicated graphics card is necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. A video card processes graphics and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you. Integrated display adapters will never be better than dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a video card to be added to the system. There are two types 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. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second.
