Abstract: Last week we covered a 13-way Radeon GPU comparison on Ubuntu 14.04 and we also looked at the state of Nouveau on Ubuntu 14.04 with many NVIDIA GeForce graphics cards. In concluding our latest round of open-source graphics driver tests from the upcoming U...
Abstract: The Xonotic first person shooter results are similar to that of the other tested Linux OpenGL games. Overall, the Core i7 4770K with HD Graphics 4600 appears roughly able to compete with a mid-range AMD Radeon graphics card when its using the open-sou...
