3D graphics on the "Kepler" class of NVIDIA graphics cards, such as your
GeForce GT 620, is currently slow (although I would have thought it
would be fast enough for Ubuntu's Unity desktop, but perhaps not given
the info you have provided) due to the lack of reclocking support for
these cards in the kernel driver.  The cards always remain at the slow
default clocks which are set during system bootup.  The upstream
developers are working on this, but it is only in the future 3.8 kernel
that they expect to have reclocking support for the older NV50 series of
NVIDIA cards (see http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/CodeNames for an
explanation of NVIDIA code names), so support for reclocking your card
would not arrive until the 3.9 kernel at the earliest.  Unfortunately
the 3.9 kernel might not be released until after the release of Ubuntu
13.04.  In the meantime you may want to use the binary NVIDIA driver
instead.
