Hi everyone, I bought a Msi Gt 710 2 gb but i returned it the next day, i wasn't happy with the graphics, then i bought Gtx 650 but my computer didn't support, so after that i had Ati Radeon 512mb for temporary usage, now i want to buy the Msi gt 710 2 gb again, but i need to know if there is any difference between Ati Radeon and Msi or is it waste of money ? Please reply
 
MSI => graphic card brand
ATI => graphic chip brand, now is AMD
You can find MSI ATI graphic cards e.g. the old MSI ATI RADEON HD3850.
You can not get answer to MSI or ATI.

Now,
For your E8xx processor, if your PSU permits, try to find a second handed GTX750ti, if you can.
GT710 and 650 are extremely weak and almost useless for gaming.
BTW: consider to go for a new PC build. That processor platform is already considered very old and will have issues with the newer games.
 
MERGED QUESTION
Question from Mustafa_23 : "Ati Radeon hd 4300/4500 vs MSI gt 710"



 
Just to mention this, there are 2 versions of the GT 710: One with GDDR5 and one with DDR3, the DDR 3 one is way slower, and may explain the bad performance... and from a quick Google search, it looks like the MSI 2gb card used DDR3.

This same type of thing is also found within the 1030 lineup, only with GDDR5 and DDR4.
