NVIDIA GeForce GT 610 On Linux @ Phoronix

Ever wonder why hardware sites don't test products on Linux?  Let's just say "it's difficult".

Phoronix has been doing hardcore Linux product testing for years and they have another great article posted highlighing a rather old card, GTX 610, running on Linux.

If you are after a low-end graphics card for use on Linux, up for review today is the Zotac GeForce GT 610 Synergy 1GB graphics card that sells for less than $50 USD. The results in this Linux hardware review compare the GT 610 to a range of other AMD Radeon and NVIDIA GeForce graphics cards using the proprietary drivers under Ubuntu Linux. Even if you're not interested in the GT 610, this article makes for a nice 12-way Linux graphics card comparison with the very latest AMD/NVIDIA GPU drivers.

I remember, back in the day, trying to organize an overclocking contest using a GTX 610 but decided that the level of effort was too much despite how versatile the card is.
