What graphics card on PC?! Help!!

[Flippin' Chicks!]

Hi! I'm new to House Flipper and I've been loving it on the Xbox One... but I've just bought the PC version so I can get the DLC and the update coming in May.
My laptop doesn't support gameplay so I'm looking for a new PC that will and I'm looking specifically for Pcs that have the graphics cards mentioned on hera as a minimum (GTX 560 or AMD R7-260x) ... but other Pc's which have other graphics cards say they're gaming Pcs (they would work for games like Fortnite etc) so I'm wondering if anyone knows if anything except the min requirements listed on here would work?
I hope that makes sense! I'm not massively techie and I'm new to all this! LOL! Any help would be much appreciated :) x

Anything as fast or faster than minimum will work.

You can try playing it on Geforce Now if the game is supported. Basically you play on the servers computers which streams it to your laptop. The servers do the work to run the game. You can play high end games on low end systems that don't meet the games requirements. Geforce Now uses a lot of data. 4-15 gb per hour and how well it works depends on your internet. If you have no internet data cap or a very high one you could try it. The free version is limited to 1 hour sessions but you can do as many sessions per day as you want. I think paid version is a 6 hour session limit and if there's a server waiting list (unlikely) you get preferred status over the free players.

Dont buy PC that has weaker graphics card then GTX 1650 or RX 570, preferably something with GTX 1650 Super or RX 580.

The one I'm looking at has a Nvidia GT710 2GB graphics card. Would that be ok? All the other specs are min requirements listed on here or higher x

710 is a terrible card compared to a 560

That is terrible office use graphics card, weaker then most modern CPU integrated graphics and will not run House Flipper, GT series is not for gaming.

Thank u! I had a look at Geforce Now... I had no idea something like that even existed!! But they don't have any slots in my region and I couldn't cope with 1 hour slots!! LOL! So I've requested 2 be notified when they do :)

If you are looking for pre-made gaming PC then you cant really get anything worthwhile below $600 and lot of those are still traps with really bad graphics cards or outdated CPUs etc.

Theres googles stadia also but I have never tried it and don't know it's free limitations. I think it's not as good as geforce now.

Terrible garbage with completely outdated CPU and no graphics card using only outdated CPU integrated graphics.

Three words: Waste of money. That thing doesn't even have a videocard. It has an integrated videochip embedded in the CPU.

While it is faster than this pitiful GT710, it's still a lot slower than the rather old GTX 560.

Those specs were awful then and they're awful now, don't buy it. You're better off building something like this: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/hGBNZf

The Ryzen 3 3100X and 3300X are supposed to be announced and released within the next month or so in conjunction with the B550 chipset, both of which are likely to be great budget options that don't compromise CPU performance like the 3200G and 3400G do for the sake of integrated graphics. (Both of which are going to have 8 threads with SMT while the 3200G has only 4 threads and no SMT)
AMD alleges that the 3300X is supposed to match a stock i7-7700K (older CPU but still a good chip today) for a mere 120$ USD MSRP. (Here is an example of the 7700K vs the current only Ryzen 3 3XXX CPU available at the moment: https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i7-7700K-vs-AMD-Ryzen-3-3200G/3647vsm824486)
