Sony VGX-TP Video Card
There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, while a dedicated graphics card is an individual piece of hardware that is bought and installed separately. A graphics card processes graphics and sends the resulting images to an external monitor where you can see the results. Integrated display adapters are almost never as good as dedicated graphic cards, in general. Today, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. Dedicated video cards are typically a required piece of hardware for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Far Cry, World of Warcraft or Battlefield. Most newer computers should have at least one PCI Express slot available for a graphics card to be installed on the motherboard.
