Lenovo ThinkCentre Edge 72 Video Card
Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes graphics and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a graphics card to be installed on the motherboard. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Dedicated video cards are necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than a dedicated video card, in general. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately.
