@brucethemoose@lemmy.world exactly, it's an old desktop. I don't prefer a laptop, because a desktop can be upgraded. Moreover, l'm going to work with kids, and desktop would be the best to introduce the world of computers to them.

    Upon closer inspection, whatever you’re looking at probably has a discrete GPU, as there are no integrated GCN 4 graphics. Probably AMD 400 series? That’s not bad.

    If you want buying/performance advice, you’re going to have to be more specific. Like what operating system are you looking at? Windows? Linux? What animation software? And ballpark what your budget is?

    I ask because different things support graphics acceleration in different ways, or prefer newer CPU architectures, or don’t work well on Linux, or whatever. There are a lot of variables.

    @brucethemoose@lemmy.world ballpark is a perfectly new word for me. Anyways, l need to make my budget in ₹, not in $. I would be working on MX Linux, on xfce until l'm able to work on evilwm. It's going to be blender of course, and l'm going to use the blender 4 if not blender 3. And most likely Vulcan 1.2 of Godot. Not pretty much into 2026, but stick to 2020 items in my present phase. I was seeing that a bug's life was released in 1998, and if l can do something of that sort, l should consider myself more than successful 😃😃😃

    So I’d investigate the exact software you’re going to use, but in general I’d go “older and bigger” for that, and try to get a desktop with a discrete GPU. Even DDR3 is fine if it’s a relatively fast DDR3 CPU.
