Sony VGC-LT34E Video Card
Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto or Battlefield. Integrated display adapters are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated is built into the motherboard, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. All video cards processes the input and renders images to the monitor where you can see the results. Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a graphics card to be installed on the motherboard. At the moment, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place.
