Well it's been a along time since I have posted here....
This is for the people who really can't afford to much layout for a graphic card....
Bought a PNY Nvidia GeForce 1Gig 210...just to play around with on an old 1 core Emachine T3304...
Mind you did upgrade the ram on it and did pump up the PS to a TR2 600 W Thermaltake....
The old tower ran about the same glxgears as the lappy in the previous post, here are the results.
Mind you I am a Nvidia fan, and you do have to upgrade your tower accordingly!
To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
See "man sudo_root" for details.
