Lenovo ThinkStation 6423 Video Card
Dedicated video cards are usually necessary for high-end games on the desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Integrated video cards are not as good as a dedicated video card, generally speaking. At the moment, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Almost all newer desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a graphics card to be added to the system. There are really only two kinds of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. A graphics card processes graphics and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you.
