Thanks, I'll consider all of that then.
What about this one ? I'm not into gaming btw

Yeah, that one looks better, 2400g got some great reviews on release.
Edit: for productivity as much as low spec gaming.
Have used novatech in the past (when they had a store in Reading), no complaints about the service from me.
It's a year older but a generation newer. It's the GK208 Kepler chip which was launched in 2013 as the GT 640 v2. It is still supported by the way, the latest driver for it on NVidia's website is less than two weeks old.
But yeah, it makes no sense at all to go for a configuration like that as it's far interior to modern integrated graphics. For example it lacks support for the latest video formats so playback will take much more CPU power (so it'll be hotter, noisier and in some cases not possible at all).
A GT 710 would generally be used as an additional graphics card to add support for additional monitors or for high end workstation builds where everyday use doesn't matter.
Went for this one in the end from a reputable supplier in the UK

Thanks for the correction Endless, I assumed they were all Fermi cards. Sorry for the duff info!
