After memory and SSD prices surged due to the AI boom, power supplies and CPU cooling solutions now appear to be next in line for price increases, per the latest news from China.
Please send me some ideas! Free titles are better since I don’t have a library of older games. I was able to get Minecraft to a playable state, but Hollow Knight couldn’t do more than 4fps. I though Neverwinter might work since it was pretty old, but I only managed what appeared to be 1/4 fps. I’m running tests on a core 2 machine with an ATI Radeon HD4250, Fedora on a SSD, 6 GB of DDR 2.
The purpose is to spread the information to people who might be struggling with win 10 or older computers that can’t upgrade. I’m offering the Linux upgrade for $10 plus the cost of a SSD. I’m only posting to my Facebook crowd because I can’t do much for people who aren’t close.
I will gladly post on Lemmy if I keep going. We have until the test computer is sold. Then I am moving on to the pile of Optiplex 9010 computers I bought for testing.

I recommend this metroidvania, if you like puzzles and riddles. La-Mulana is an experience.
Looks amazing!
It’s a great game, Spelunky from my list takes a lot from it.

… you charge 10 monies for stuff we are willing to do for free to people that didn’t even ask for Linux??
/s (tho that is steep compared to less than 10 monies worth of 'puters)
A few from here, bcs I listed a few already:
Doom(s), Quake(s), Unreal, Deus Ex, Elder Scrolls (Arena, Daggerfall, Morrowind), Thief(s), Dungeon Keeper(s), Carmageddon, Fallout(s), Resident Evil(s), Vampire: The Masquerade, Hitman(s), Clive Barker’s Undying, Gothic(s), Half-Life, Tomb Raider(s), Myst(s), Monkey Island(s), Baldur’s Gate(s), Icewind Dale(s), Diablo(s), GTA(s), KotOR, Outcast, Serious Sam(s), Cave Story, Stardew Valley, Terraria, Celeste, Momodora(s?), Spelunky (classic), …
But perhaps there are emulators & ppl can play some of these games from their phones (with a keyboard, on their monitors or TVs)?
They won’t let me do it for for free. They think I’m doing bad things if I don’t charge for it.
Thanks for the list!
