..no Nvidia GeForce GT 710 here, but do try the nouveau driver, the
710 is 6 years old and should work right away on the nouveau driver.

..my Dell Precision M4400 has a Quadro FX 770M on the nouveau driver,
I run X at 1920x1200 @ 59.97*+:

..my first experience with Nividea was buying a 2'hand Radeon HD 4890
that needed a 8 pin power wire, so I had to make do with a GTS 250 that
came with the Radeon to fill up the box, the 250 came bang right up,
with the nouveau driver, at 2048x1536 AFAIR, and I even had FlightGear
going at a flyable 7 to 15 fps clip.
