A freind of mine has an older entry level Dell computer that his boss gave him when the company upgraded. Here are the basic specs
Pentium4 2.4ghz
256mb ram
80gig hard drive
Cd-r/rw drive
integrated Intel 845 extreme graphics
Ok so he is really into using programs like Google earth and likes to play some of the retro games like Doom. I have an ATI Radeom 9250 that I am not using and am going to donate to his budget PC. Is it even worth the trouble?? Would a lowly Radeon 9250 128mb be any better than the Intel 845 integrated graphics? Im hoping at least to free up some memory since the 9250 has 128mb onboard compared to the 64mb shared memory of the Intel integrated graphics. Do you guys think it will help at all???
