As a paperweight or doorstop?
If you live near me (Worthing) I will personally come to your door and give you a better graphics card...
Or go on eBay and buy one which is several times better for £8
They are so old that they have drifted out of my memory... The X550 maybe? Try them both.

Don't bother with either of those. Get yourself a Voodoo 5 and you will be golden.
In all seriousness, stay way from either of those cards
If you are on a mega budget, get a MSI Radeon R7 240 or something.
Your not wrong
I cannot seem to find anything about either GPU to be honest.
I reckon the 3000 would be better, but both are very old and not really of any use at all.
Yes but that is 2009 motherboard graphics with 40 shaders vs 2005 dedicated ultra lowend card card with only 4 shaders.
So not so clear cut.
My AMD A6-1450 notebook has faster APU than those. And is ancient and asthmatic the poor thing.

NONE. I wouldn't bother, even if they were free. Except you want to play 2d games from the last century and NONE made this one.
At 800x600 resolution also.
