Like with a previous thread on overclocking a GT740... here's some low end fun

Tests with MSI Kombustor 3 Benchmark portion, at 1280x720 window.

A Nvidia GT 710 GDDR5 model (not the crappy DDR3 one) vs Intel HD 4600 iGPU

Default 710 - 2303 points, 38 fps
710 1300 core OC - 3011 points, 50 fps (my 710 doesn OC mem well, so didnt!)
Default HD 4600 - 1475 points, 24 fps
HD 4600 1650MHz OC +0.275v - 1776 points, 29 fps

In summary, a GDDR5 GT710 whups even an overclocked HD 4600 iGPU ... Would be fun to see just how slow a DDR3 GT710 is. But none of these are great for gaming ;)

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/forums/threads/random-gt-740-overclocking-results.18888722/ is my previous efforts with a GT 740 Superclocked

Today I picked up another 740 and results are in

Default (993 core, 1250 mem) ............4306 points, 71 fps
OC no voltage (1240 core, 1500 mem) 5333 points, 88 fps
OC (1250 core, 1500 mem, +25mV) ... 5376 points, 89 fps (25% boost in frames)

Just waiting for a replacement fan for my (whiney) GT 730 GDDR5 for a full comparison of Nvidia's low end 700 cards.... I might also throw in a GT 1030 I have for comparison purposes.
