astraljavaI got an older Amd Athlon64 cheap ages ago.19:17
prepSo these new i3's come with integrated video, how; does that work with Ubuntu?19:22
astraljavaGenerally Intel chips have good 2D, but poor 3D. What are you looking for?19:23
prepI better build decent if I decide to add a video DAW down the road19:25
astraljavaYou can always add a video card later if the integrated doesn't suit your needs.19:26
prepwhat confuses me, is Nvidia is branded under EVGA, MSI etc, what's the deal with that?19:27
astraljavaDon't they make chips only, not full-blown cards?19:28
prepI thought that did, guess I'm wrong19:29
astraljavaI'm not 100% on that either.19:30
preplooks like the geForce 9500 works well, that's a good card19:31
