MINT APP REQUIREMENTS UPGRADE
MINT APP REQUIREMENTS WINDOWS 10

I suspect Mint will generally run better than Windows 10 does on that as my HP2000 laptop, which is the worst of the three computers I have, runs better on Mint v20.x than Windows 10 did as Windows 10 seemed to be a bit too CPU hungry in general. with that setup, your going to be quite limited just by looking at '1.10GHz'. I have question.I have a evoo ultrathin notebook with dual core 1.10 ghz processor 64gb memory 4gb ram and Intel N4000.windows 10 seems to be sluggish on it and was looking for a newer faster os.I'm used to Chromebooks but was wondering if these specs are ok for Linux mint.and some gaming.not high gaming but racing games like asphalt 8 and cod mobile?

MINT APP REQUIREMENTS 720P

so if your into playing back x264 720p and 1080p video through Celluloid+MPV combo, Xfce is likely the safer choice over a wide range of hardware. especially if your playing back video on say a 2nd screen, say a typical 1080p TV, with Celluloid+MPV (which typically uses hardware acceleration if available), Xfce is definitely the safer choice as on at least 2 out of the 3 computers I got (two desktops, one laptop) Xfce does not have issues where as Cinnamon does as there is jerkiness in video playback on Cinnamon where as Xfce works as expected. Xfce is probably a all-around safer choice than Cinnamon, at least in my experience with my hardware (my newest CPU is i5-3550 which is 10 year old tech basically, although the GPU I am using is pretty much 6 year old tech, which is my main PC). but with 4GB of RAM, you got some room to breathe and won't have to worry about RAM too much.Īs for Mint itself (currently v20.x series). So while you can technically use less than 4GB of RAM (and even a weaker CPU than I mentioned), unless your a very light user or don't mind a lack of passable performance standards, it's not realistic to use a computer for any length of time if you only got 2GB of RAM (and probably not at least a decent(so none of the really underpowered CPU's) dual core CPU) since this is sort of the bare minimum nowadays and even here you will run out of RAM pretty quickly after running your browser for a short period of time with say a few tabs open etc. although pretty much any decent CPU (so none of the really underpowered CPU's) from the early 2010's should be a safe bet. which pretty much means the late 2000's (although probably the higher side of that to be a little safer) at the oldest. CPU = a decent dual core CPU (I am just assuming 64bit since 32bit is petty much ancient). I tend to sum things up about like this as a pretty good guideline for more of a usable system that won't be limited to light usage.

Just about everything in Linux at the OS level will run at disk speed unless you upgrade to the latest most expensive SSD. OS level system applications, like backups, run in a fraction of one core and are limited by disk speed, not processor speed. Those applications can be slow with 4 or 8 cores. The same core can run email and the first tab of a Web browser when using Javascript blockers like Noscript.Ī 4 GHz core is slow when running some Javascript, some image transformations, and video editing. You can run the GUI in one core of an old processor. The Web browser uses far more resources than the GUI. There are tuning options for all three LM GUIs. The only GUI interface I find to be really fast is the Lxde GUI in the Raspberry Pi OS and that is mainly because the Raspberry Pi people spent years tuning the OS for the computer. With effects off, I have run Cinnamon on a pathetic Netbook. In Cinnamon, you can also switch off Effects which makes Cinnamon similar to MATE.

A GPU can make Cinnamon run faster than MATE in the same environment. Note that Cinnamon is the only one to use a GPU if there is a GPU. Been good for the last 6 years since 17 all the way through 20.

I have no problems with dual core 1.8ghz, 4gb ram, using Mint Cinnamon 64 bit. You can take my suggestion with a grain of salt, ( * i have personally found anything 64-bit with less than a 2.6ghz cpu sluggish )įor 64-bit systems i suggest CPU 2.6ghz (quad or higher) with 4-8 gig of ram (potential light steam gaming)įor 64-bit systems with CPU 3ghz+ ( quad or higher) you could have lower ram 2-4gig ( no steam gaming)įor 64-bit systems with CPU 3ghz+ ( quad or higher) 8+gig ram ( medium to high steam gaming )įor 64-bit systems >2.4ghz ( duo )possibly better off with 32-bit system Knowing the hardware (aka cpu, ram, wifi or ethernet connection requirement ) and usage requirements, would go a long way to helping you determine if its right for you. *success rates can very per person and is dependant on what one considers a success.
