Hi all!
I know it sounds a bit crazy, but is it possible to remotely use a video card? It would be so amazing! :wink:

I have an old Pentiun 166 and I'm using it as an X terminal. It's great, my old Pentiun has never been so fast! The only problem, tough, is its video performance. I can't play games at all! The video is tooooo slow.... If I could remotely use the video card of my GREAT (ok, not so great, but a fine Pentiun 700) pc, I would be able to play games using my Lan just fine... Anyways, anyone know if it can be done?

Thanks!

Even if it were a Pentium XII 350GHz, video performance would suck. Remote X is not for gaming.

Simple answer: no.
