ok a couple of weeks ago i installed Ubuntu just for fun as i was bored of looks of the windows 8 and 7 ....

 

so now i am addicted to Ubuntu i hardly boot into windows ....

 

and i hate every time to boot into windows just to play some games ...

the thing is i built this pc for gaming and i hate to see Ubuntu not sucking its full power up ..

 

most of the games hardly use my gpu ,,,, except cave story +

 

so is there any way i can utilize my pc ?

 

do u guys know any free games on ubuntu which actually stress gpu ? sorry but my pockets are empty atm ...
