But I have problem with my graphics video adapter: Intel 855GM. I like to have always updated systems, so I have all the necessary repositories and all fixes installed.
Now I decided to install newer version OpenSUSE 11.4 (i586) with KDE 4.6 and kernel version 2.6.37.6. Last year I had installed OpenSUSE 11.2 x86 on this notebook and my graphics drivers worked perfectly (with full 3D acceleration). I have IBM ThinkPad X40 laptop (I know it's an old one, but it still works great) and though most of the time, I'm using M$ operating systems (because of my work), I also want to become more familiar with Linux systems, so I have dual boot on my laptop. I'm only running 720p, and i've seen systems with less RAM and similar spec otherwise run games at 1080p better than the next gen consoles.Please help me with my video driver. Please consider a platform upgrade to LGA1155 or LGA1150, it will boost your general use case experiences overall a lot more than just the gaming side.Ĭonsidering i got this for free, and considering it'll last me until i have the money for a proper machine, i'll just buy a GPU and save the rest.
Trying to provide you an alternative view here. This means if you buy one of those two cards now and then upgrade your platform within the next 6 months, you would, then, have bought outdated gpus by then and then bought a platform upgrade nullifying the reason you bought such low end cards in the first place. Moreover, those two cards in suggestion here are very small cards if you ever want to step up your game later with a platform upgrades. Your system already cannot handle anything more than 750ti or a R7 260X / 265, so a GPU upgrade would not be, whilst very beneficial, not as big of an impact on your general computer experience (everything else than gaming). I would seriously consider a platform upgrade instead of a GPU upgrade right now and do the GPU upgrade within 3-4 months when the new iteration of gfx cards are out so you will get the best performance out of this.
You have 6 year old CPU and motherboard combination, and DDR2 memory.
