HD 3650 AGP. glxgear, other demos and even some old > games in wine like deusex work fine. Openarena, UT, vdrift, nexuiz, etc... should all work fairly well also. There are still features that are not yet implemented on r600, but I tend to run all of the above all video options enabled on highest settings. Really large textures are slow and it seems like I found one option that really hurt performance (bloom maybe), but otherwise they are all more than playable on my HD4650 core2duo e7400.
