Video Card Help: GTX 460 vs GT 610?

So I was at Future Shop this fine winter's eve and they've got the Zotac GeForce GT 610 SE on sale for $39.99 CAN. I currently have an EVGA GeForce GTX 460 SE.

Would I be an idiot for passing up a deal like this, or is my card far superior?

    Nooo, don't waste your money! It would be a fairly significant downgrade in terms of processing power.

    You're a good person, @chrishallett83. I will not kill you, unlike the 82 chrishalletts that came before you.

    They displeased me.

    From the teach-a-man-to-fish philosophy, here's a handy graphics card hierarchy link: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-7.html

    You know it's a bad sign when the card you're considering isn't even on the rankings list.
