Sham,
Welcome to the club! :-).

I have been using AMD X2 4400+ with nVidia/GeForce 6150 chipset. Running
SXDE (b72) for the
last 6 months and it is running simply fine.

Here is my configuration bought in September:

In fact, my desktop is a real workhorse and runs at an amazing speed with
2GB RAM when running Solaris.

Regards,
- Raju
