#11 Low end graphics card in Hardware

The proprietary drivers are, by leaps and bounds, better in performance. They're not a pain at all though, in both Ubuntu and Linux Mint, simply look for "Device Drivers" in the system menu, and when the card is installed it will have a one click selection for installation.

The sad part about this in general though, is that when it comes to GPUs AMD has better low end and nV has better high end. The nV low end, low price point cards do lag behind the AMD ones, but in Linux you will lag behind more so with AMDs poor Linux support, so the cards I listed above are your best shot.

EDIT: I went and looked up some more reviews on the GT 630....I can NOT suggest that card. It is just a rebranded GT 440, and a very poor performer, even under the Linux drivers. I'm afraid you're likely not going to get anything but shit for your price range. The GT 640 however does show more promise, and is a proper 6 series card using the Kepler core.

#9 Low end graphics card in Hardware

If you're running Linux, Get an nVidia card. I cannot stress that enough. nVs Linux driver quality far surpasses AMDs, with the nV driver actually making my TF2 FASTER under Linux Mint then on Windows. AMD Radeon drivers, however, and known to be slow. If you want graphics speed on Linux, nVidia is your only viable option.

Edit: did some looking, your best bet would be (warning: american sites) the GT 630, its a liiiittle over your budget I think but it would be worth it. If you can manage to jump a bit higher, theres the GT 640 as well.

Edit: On further research, I would NOT suggest the GT 630, it is an incredibly nerfed card, and is in fact a rebranded GT 440.

Give the flying medic and no knockback to the Vaccinator and both become balanced and viable.

#36 qf is just a scapegoat in TF2 General Discussion

Holy shit, someone speaks with some sense.

For the longest time, no one had an issue with gully being shit, but people were more or less silent. People also seemed ok, in fact pretty hyped, about the quick-fix. Suddenly, after Slin just so happens to say QF should be banned in front of 3k people, suddenly everyone blames the QF and not a map that is known for being stalematey.

The QF, in my opinion, is seriously awesome and a ton of fun to watch, not only because of the gun itself but of the changes game-wide it brings. Seriously, I've said this a ton of times, but Plat pulling out the Conch and it being a legit, solid counter was fucking a m a z i n g. People were sneering about that match, saying "tsk, this is what Robin wanted huh" when the answer is in fact YES. In what world before the QF would a play with the Conch even be dreamed of? The play was shadowed by Gullywash being Gullywash, but thats the kind of shit we need to see, thats the kind of shit Robin and Valve wanted, more weapon variety.

Can't wait for Slin to get on the next big stream he can and tell us why Vaccinator should be banned now.

#152 ESEA Quick Fix Ruling in TF2 General Discussion

Oh boy! A new medigun! Boy it sure is interesting see how players figure it out in play. Hmmm, seems they're stuck trying to figure it out for a moment, stalemate on a stalematey map, not a surprise. WHOA HOLY SHIT, A CONCH?! HOLY SHIT IT WORKS?! HOLY SHIT HYYYYYPE

HOLY SHIT, I'd have NEVER thought I'd see a Conch pulled out and be a viable, solid counter! That was amazing! I can't wait to see what other changes the Quick-Fix will-

Oh. Banned.

Well, I suppose when you allow a huge, game changing item mid season, give the players no time to figure it out, then put them in LAN with a cast instantly calling for a ban in front of 3k people from a single bad half, I suppose that might happen, huh?

I love watching skill when it does the same thing every time.
