Lenovo ThinkCentre M78 Video Card
At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. A graphics card computes and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be installed. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as a separate video card, generally speaking. A dedicated graphics card is usually necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry.
