if you change to a better gfx card, the only thing which improves on n64 emulators is 2d gfx speed and faster frame rates at 32bit. If you want real spead improvement then go by another proccesor. My bro has TNT 2 with a pIII @ 866 and get more fps than me in 16-bit mode ???

Thats not entirely true, though true in most cases, my 1ghz system had a bottle neck with the TNT2, when I upgraded speed increased a bunch.

yeah i reckon that should be in bright red on the first page of any requirements list for emulators...

HUGE PROCESSOR SPEED NEEDED

Only really Jabo's plugins sue some of new graphics cards advanced features, most of the work appears to be done in the CPU

only in SOME multimedia areas, which are heavily SSE2 enhanced, and even then the 1900 isnt far behind, but in your generic benchies and apps all do better with AMD
