Is the nVidia GeForce 315 any good?

Are NVIDIA GeForce cards good for programs like solidworks?

• Im looking to get a new laptop. I wanted to do some gaming on it also so i was considering one with a geforce gpu. But then another laptop i'm looking at has NVIDIA NVS4200M which apparently isnt good for gaming but from what i heard may be good for solidworks or rendering programs. I dOnt know much about gpus, but i'm thinking since the geforce is able to play games, is it safe to say that it can operate solidworks smoothly? Or are the two cards (geforce vs nvs) two totally different animals? Thanks

• Answer:

  You would be amazed at how that graphic card can handle that program and the difference between a graphic card bois and a workstation bois and a computation bois can be(even though they are identical cards). I think that was a 7600gs in its consumer over the counter(curciut city) form,for home p.c. NVS4200M but like all things that get old they have issues with newer type work and that is what that model of NVIDIA is suffering from.
