That might actually explain why running "time tree /" took longer on the
terminal launched on the graphics card than the one launched on the
integrated graphics.
But the root question remains:
What do I do with extra hardware ? Is there no pragmatic use under Linux ?
In Windows there is gaming, but that doesn't make sense in Linux. I was
hoping to hook up all my displays to this discrete graphics card and get
better performance.
But as you say that is not going to happen.
So what can I use this for ? Any ideas?
If you can find an application that uses a lot of 3D rendering (which
usually means a game), you can compare the frame rate between running
it with each option.
I play a lot of games under Windows, but I have no idea about games that
are graphics intensive in Linux.
What if I run a graphics bench-marking software rather than a game ?
