Things get a little more interesting if you at some point go for a graphics upgrade.
AMD's RX 580 is a pretty tasty card, although for pure graphics power Nvidia's expensive GTX 1070, 1080 or 1080 Ti do blow it away. If you were comparing an RX 580 to a GTX 1060 then things are a lot closer.

I don't plan on upgrading this machine anytime in the near future. Also, I've seen that page before, and there are a couple things that make it seem inaccurate for my situation... First, it doesn't use the correct models that I have. As I mentioned before, both of my cards have 2GB of GDDR5. Second, those results are for windows. However, using simple logic, I suppose I could translate that as the gt 640 being the definite better performer. I'm still curious about the gap though. Is mesa for AMD as proportionately good as the proprietary nvidia drivers are when compared to windows? Btw, thanks for the reply. :)
