Sony PCV-W10 Video Card
A dedicated graphics card is typically a required piece of hardware for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Integrated, or onboard, graphics are almost never as good as a dedicated video card, in general. Today, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. A graphics card computes and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. There are really only two kinds of video 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. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard.
