The 610 is typically known as a terrible gaming card, not able to run any real full on 3d game at any decent settings. If you ware wanting to game on a desktop it is recommended that you make the jump to at least a $120 gpu like the 650ti or an amd equivalent. anything below is almost a waste of money as most integrated cpu graphics processors will be faster

The gt 610 isnt much better. It is still a horrible gaming card. The last 2 generations of intels integrated graphics are faster than a 610.

The minimum you want to get is a GTX 650 or HD 7750, and even those are rather terrible. What are the other specs?
