Sony PCV-RS700C Video Card
Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. Dedicated video cards are necessary for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. There are two types of graphic cards, integrated and dedicated. An integrated graphic card is built-in to the main board, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Integrated video cards will never be better than a separate video card, in general. Both an integrated and dedicated video card processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard.
