ok, I'll try to make this as concise as possible
I found a desktop at a thrift shop in working condition:
CPU: i3 2120 3.3Ghz with intel 2000 graphics
RAM: 6Gb ddr3 1333
MOTHERBOARD: Acer ipisb-vr rev 1.01
PSU: 300W
HDD: 1Tb WD Blue 7200rpm Sata III (mobo is sata II 3gb/s)
I am running Linux MInt 17.3 currently
I just bought an Asus GT-430 1Gb gpu because it was $30. Will using this gpu be better than the intel 2000 graphics on this rig? I would like to be able to play some games like Counterstrike GO but I'm not expecting to play anything on high settings. with the intell 2000 graphics i can't play CS GO even on the lower end of fps.
Will the Asus GT-430 be better than intel 2000 graphics?
Will I be able to play some steam games with decent settings?
