x64 system running 18.04.20 doesn't work too well

Substring

@shamanmogz i'm on holidays for now, ping me in a week for such a delicate topic

SylGaud

My system is a 64bit core 2 DUO (E6750) with a GT710 and 4GBs of RAM, 3TB HDD

Hi Shamanmogz,
I intend to buy a MSI GT 710 1GD3H LP --> according to what you say, GT710 works fine with RecalBox ?

Thanks

SylGaud

Well, the GT 710 works with RecalBox.
A bit laggy with Wii and GameCube (I use a 5 year-old compaq Elite, maybe I could tweak a bit) but it works.

Hi, I'd like to add my experience with the GT 710 on this page: https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/PC-compatibility-(EN)
do I have to create an account, or use the pull request? (or simplier: I tell you my feedback and you paste it^^)

Thanks

@sylgaud it's just a wiki, you only need an account

GT 710 isn't properly seen.
I've tested Wii and GameCube with the GT 710 under Windows 10 --> perfectly smooth, filtered etc...

So GT710 not yet compatible with RB.

@sylgaud what's the point of comparing windows and recalbox ???

SylGaud

@substring
I'm not comparing, I'm explaining how I came to say that GT710 is not properly handled by RB:

When launching dolphin, I can read up the screen that the GPU is correctly detected (yellow lines telling what GPU is detected, openGL etc..)
ES, dreamcast, N64 perfectly smooth and sharp.

These 2 experiences let me think that GPU was correctly detected.

But as I could see under windows, it is not .
Indeed, wii and gamecube are waaayyyy smoother under Windows than RB.

So no complaining or comparison, only some tests to get some more precise and final answers.

@sylgaud how many GPU do you have on your setup ?

@substring
2: the integrated INTEL SANDYBRIDGE, and the PCI MSI GT 710

(... pretty obvious to say, but of course, when I plug the MSI in, I use the corresponding VGA port, and not the Intel's one...)
