Advantage of Graphics card vs. motherboard VGA built in?

I don't play PC games, so other then that is there really a reason to
put in a $100 graphic card in a PC other then utilizing the built in
VGA graphics on my ASUS motherboard. What types of applications if
any other then games would I notice a difference? Video Editing,
Photoshop, etc ????? Thanks.
