Sony PCV-RX672 Video Card
At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is in second. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than dedicated graphic cards, generally speaking. Almost all newer desktops will have at least one PCIe slot open for a dedicated video card to be installed. All video cards computes and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where it is displayed for you. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield.
