my gt 210 old old card would smoke my gtx 560 and 460 in view port performance
its like 20 dollar card
Have you actually tested that or are you just speaking your mind?
While I know that the GTX560 doesn’t perform as well as I thought it would I still find it VERY hard to believe that disabling double-sided for all meshes doesn’t do anything. I own a GTX560Ti and I get a performance boost of almost 300% in very complex scenes, enabling VBO doesn’t make a striking difference but it also gives a small boost and I also have an 8-core AMD FX processor.
i have tested it or i might be doing something wrong on disabling the double sided faces can you point me in the right direction 
i also have a 8 core fx its an 8350
and i have had a gt 210 in my computer before my 460 and i could tell that it was slower in view port when i got my 560 ti i couldnt tell any difference
but my ram is also 667 mhz so
