The most significant benefit you will see is speed. A dedicated graphics processing unit will load up graphics intensive programs more quickly - like your OS, if yours uses a GUI.
Another benefit, if you use your computer to watch movies, is a smoother frame transition.
Most people can get by with standard graphics, but if you have a reason to get a separate card, then it could help. Most of the time, however, that reason is that a person wants to play games - which is, I believe, why computers are so sophisticated to begin with.What are the benefits of adding a graphics card to my pc as a non-gamer?There are several reasons, none of which are necessary. A lot of graphics artist (like myself ) need them. Being a gamer (like myself too :P) would need one. Another non-gaming purpose would be video editing. Other people enjoy watching movies or looking at work from artists and would prefer to have higher quality on their computer. Generally speaking, onboard graphics will get you buy if you're not video/photo editing or gaming or watching movies. If you are just using the computer for office or general use, the only thing that uses graphics would be your operating system's GUI, which isn't too demanding.
