New Computer: New Issues

In my opinionated opinion, any NVidea card with the last 2 digits less than 50 no mater what series (400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900) is not a good choice for the likes of Trainz.
I own a GT610 myself and I can validate said opinionated opinion.
I find that the Gt610 is only an excusable purchase if you own a SFF PC like I do, which I use solely as a "steambox" now, but I plan on building a more serious kit later on for the same purpose - just beta testing SteamOS on it for now. This machine can only accept low-profile GPUs.
Here's a tip, if the GPU has a dinky little heatsink, expect what you see coming out of the rear-end of it.
Beefier = Better in most cases.


- System has GMA4500
+ System Runs Core 2 Duo Wolfdale
+ System has PNY GT610 LP for slight performance increase
+ System is a nice cheap TV Box
+ Keeps my room toasty
