I present a short video demonstrating why a graphics card is something you should ustilise.

Both emulators are running scaled and auto throttle. Settings for both are shown in the video.

PC Specs...

CPU: Intel QX9650 Extreme Ed
GPU: 2 * AMD 6950 2GB (desktop mode not crossfire, running 5 screens)
RAM: 6GB
O/S: Windows 7 64bit Ultimate ed.



Keep an eye on the cpu usage. its a 1920*1080 video so you may need to zoom in a bit to view it.


How do I do that? This explains it a bit better as to how GPU processing works vs CPU



Edit, the .wmv file is NOT the same video.
