Sony PCV-RS612P 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. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are not as good as a separate video card, in general. Most new desktops should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a dedicated video card to be installed.
