Great Video Card for the Price!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Upgraded from a NVidia GT 610 2G card and was worried that losing 1G would make a noticeable difference, but thankfully my fears were grounded . I raid heavily in WoW and my 610 was barely keeping up with Legions. With the next expansion now just months away I knew it wasn't going to cut it any longer as I was already experiencing lots of lag, esp on weekends, Even playing on the lowest settings was becoming painful, and I play on a low pop server at that!
As someone on a fixed monthly budget I didn't think I'd be able to find a card to improve matters, then recently some of my friends recommended the 710 so I took the chance, and I'm really glad I did. For the 1st time in a while I'm able to play the game w/o experiencing bad lag ... and even better I was able to improve my game settings using the NVidia control panel's easy to navigate optimization panel, so for me it was a welcomed investment!
Overall I'd definitely recommend this card for those on tight budgets. Granted it's not a 900+ series, but for the price it's a worth-while investment and will give you that extra little oomph when playing your on and offline games.
My Best Buy number: 3464364350

Is this graphics card better than the Amd radeon hd 8280? Looking to upgrade my HP desktop.

The overall benchmark rating comparison between the Radeon hd 8280 and the Nvidia 610 GT 2g puts the 610 just slightly higher then the 8280. From the looks of it though it won't make that much of a difference, the scores are literally points apart so personally I'd say if you can swing the extra funds upgrade to a higher Nvidia 700 or 800 series. I just picked up a PNY NVidia 710 for a few dollars more then the 610 GT 2G cost me years ago and so far have been really pleased with the results.

You can use this website to check the card differences any time by the by: http://gpuboss.com/. If you do the 'compare' against the NVidia 710 you'll notice right away that for the extra 5-10$ it's worth the investment (esp if you're like me on a small budget and still crave comparably good graphics). Good luck with your upgrade! :)

This card support Roller Coaster Tycoon World or Planet Coaster specification?

Use this website to find out if your video card can run practically any PC game on the market: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri . I popped my old 610 GT 2G that I recently upgraded from back into my comp and it shows I could run RCTW and PC just fine, but I'd double check with the site just to be safe. Good luck! :)
