Anyone using an Intel NUC with Recalbox?

[joinski]

@olivierdroid92
Gamecube and Dreamcast runs very well (but on the DC53427HYE i have a few slow downs in some Gamecube games). But i did test only a few games like Crazy Taxi and Mario Kart DoubleDash yet.
I do not know, how many Dreamcast and Gamecube games will run good on the NUC. You should just test for yourself.

@MilesCW
Should run even better because of Intel HD Graphics 620

@voljega
Why should it be not enough for Gamecube?

@olivierdroid92 and @MilesCW
For Gamecube i would suggest to use *moderated*, because it runs a bit better then Recalbox.
I do not know why, but maybe it is because of a different Dolphin Version?
Recalbox uses Dolphin Version 18.07.13-dirty and *moderated* uses Dolphin 2018.05-rc2-3120.

@joinski because several users reported there that gamecube on recalbox needed at least 3Ghz of processing power to be perfectly smooth.

@voljega

my experience is different. In Gamecube emulation CPU- and GPU-Power are almost same important. Newer Generation CPUs (at least Core i3) do not need >3GHz to have good performance. Even some Pentium G (G3220 for example) with Intel HD Graphics are fast enough to run Gamecube Games in native resolution at full speed.
look here:

@joinski this is not recalbox, the implementation is not the same or not in the same version, so it's a pretty pointless comparison

in your previous message you say yourself you experienced slowdown and didn't tested much games so ...

[joinski]

@voljega

i will do a comparision with Recalbox if wanted.

@olivierdroid92 and @MilesCW
do you have any specific Gamecube games you want me to test with Recalbox?

[MilesCW]

@joinski

Nothing comes to my mind - but thanks for the offer!

[voljega]

@joinski Try any Rogue Squadron or Viewtiful Joe

[joinski]

@voljega

Viewtiful Joe runs perfect at 60fps.
But Rogue Squadron II unfortunately is unplayable. It runs only with 30-50fps and has graphical glitches.

FYI: I just tried BOXNUC7CJYH1. Recalbox menu is unusable, registering 'key press' about 1 every 30 secs.
Thats on Intel UHD 600 graphics.

@overunity
Thanks for the feedback.
I am very disapointed as I planed to buy the same.
Any chanche to record and share a video to show us the issue with the menu ?
Also if you 're in position to record a short video with a least 1 game will help us.

@overunity

maybe you can try the fork of recalbox?
unfortunately it is not allowed here, to mention the name of it

@olivierdroid92 ich würde dir einfach nur empfehlen, ein bisschen mehr Geduld zu haben. Bald wird Buildroot aktualisiert und damit Kernel, Treiber und Co. auch. Dann sollte vieles funktionieren
