Chipset/speed issues, as in the machine is just sluggish? Slow how, graphics? check the base fps you can get out of X-windows with:

glxgears

Drive access? What're your board drives running ATA-wise?

hdparm -i /dev/hda
hdparm -Tt /dev/hda

What's the chip and the RAM, is the match good, is the RAM really cheap?

Cheers,

Finegan
