That just shifts the problem.  He has a good computer with a
not-entirely-working video card.  You're suggesting something that
would put him in a situation where he'd have a passable video card
with a not-entirely-working computer attached to it.

Don't get me wrong: I use Raspberry Pis for a lot of things.  But I
don't use them as my daily driver, because they don't have the
horsepower.  Shifting to ARM would also break most games.
