Lenovo ThinkStation 6483 Video Card
Integrated display adapters will never be better than a dedicated video card, generally speaking. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. There are really only two kinds of video 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. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. A graphics card processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results.
Signals of a barely functioning graphics card
