There isn't a difference between video cards and graphics cards as far as I know, they're the same thing.

For the upgrade, what's your price range, and what Motherboard have you got?

I dont have any knowledge of video cards and it would be my first time buying a video card separately. I do not have any budget right now but would want to spend as less as possible.
My mother board is an ICS built. How do I check what specific model of motherboard have I got?

Google for Everest Home and run that.
