Hi guys, 

I need help, I have a good computer I can play games on. BUt I want to convince my friends that pc gamin is the way to go. I thought that we could play together if we use my old laptop with GMA 945 just to run the game, lowest settings. We would be playing gmod, will it work?

pentium 1.73ghz

2gs of ddr2

And it is running Zorin

(Also if it can, can someone tell me how to install opengl drivers on linux)

Thank you all in advance!

I don't really know what gmod is but that is a very underpowered GPU so I'll say probably not.

I'd guess not, Gmod is pretty sketchy on my i7 graphics so I doubt yours could run it.. Remember I can get EXTREMELY cpu intensive at times to.

So extreme that I had to use capitals. 

(Not to EXTREMELY extreme)

I am thinking ttt so would that work

What is that? and well there is only one way to find out and that is to run it.

I can play league of it on lowest settings at 1280x1024 at 30fps which isn't very good imo. Pretty sure that Gmod will not run smoothly on lowest settings but it would be playable. bfp4f run so smooth because the lowest settings only are composed of shapes and doesn't use many textures.
