The 3650 uses an RV635 chip. The r600 series recently got 3d support.
I thought for F13 you didn't need mesa-dri-drivers-experimental for 3d on
r600 and r700 chips, but maybe you do. (You did for F12.)

If you try installing mesa-dri-drivers-experimental and restarting X, you
might see some speed up.

There are still things that the 3d drivers don't do on linux, so that even
with 3d support some things won't be as fast as they would be on other OS's.
