Sony VGC-LV250J Video Card
A video card processes graphics and renders images to the monitor where it is displayed for you. Currently, nVidia rules the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Most newer computers will have at least one spot available for a dedicated video card to be installed on the motherboard. Dedicated video cards are pretty much required for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Integrated display adapters are almost never as good as a separate video card, in general. There are two types 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.
