Sony VPCL2390X Video Card
Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated video card market, while AMD is in second. A graphics card processes graphics and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. A dedicated graphics card is usually necessary for most games you would play on a desktop computer like Overwatch, Battlefield or Far Cry. Integrated, or onboard, graphics will never be better than a separate video card, generally speaking. There are two types of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated cards are built-in to the computer itself, whilst a dedicated card is purchased and installed onto the main board. Most newer computers will have at least one PCIe slot open for a graphics card to be installed.
