Lenovo ThinkServer TS200 Video Card
Almost all newer desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a video card to be installed. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where it is displayed for you. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Integrated video cards are almost never as good as a separate video card, generally speaking. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Dedicated video cards are required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield.

- The Lenovo ThinkServer TS200 freezes when beginning a game
