I didn't know people here in Croatia still buy used computers (for more than 200kn/30€). I remember giving one away a few years ago (when we bought Aimme his new computer).Rayne wrote:Cookie wrote:Rayne wrote:I'm sorry guys but i sold my computer today so i can't continue working on this background, I'll finish it when i find a new rig.

you sold your computer for beer? :shock:
No i sold if for 140 euros LMAO. Some architect plonker came along and was thrilled how it works compared to his 1,8 hahahah.
Now I'm looking for something better, these are my current options.
AMD Athlon 64 X2, 2700 MHz
2 GB DDR2-800 DDR2 SDRAM
80GB HDD
ATI Radeon X1950 Pro
It's cheap, it looks good, should i buy this thing or not.
Pentium 4 3,0 Ghz
1,75 Gb Ram
Nvidia Geforce 7800 gs 256 mb
150 Gb HDD
This one is single core, but it's a 775 socket so it can easily be upgraded. And it has and nvidia (somewhat weaker) GPU.
Intel Core2Duo E4400 2,0 GHz
512MB DDR2
graficka ATI Radeon HD 4350 256MB PCIE, HDMI i DVI
HDD 80 GB Hitachi SATA
This one is probably weakest but it's definitely the cheapest.
Anyway, Nvidia or very old ATI is a must for Linux. Newer ATI cards practically have no drivers for linux, and an x1600 I have at home runs only without drivers on Linux, and is quite sucky on Windows. However, an ATI 9200 worked on Ubuntu out-of-the-box with 3D acceleration.
NVidia drivers are actually installable on Linux.
On the other notice, if you do only one thing on your computer at a time, dual-core, quad-core or million-core is often no different from a single core.
