Lenovo ThinkCentre M60E Video Card
There are two types of graphic 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. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be added to the system. A dedicated graphics card is necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. A video card processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than dedicated graphic cards, in general.
