It requires a GPU.

It requires NVIDIA

Do I need a GPU for this?

It does use gpu, you need to compile it with a flag.

You’ll need gpu acceleration

Not surprised at the system requirements- it has to emulate a 486 MHz PowerPC CPU. I have no idea why it would require a discrete GPU though. It only needs to output SD-quality video. Maybe shader performance is a limiting factor in the GPU emulations?

Great project. After poking around the site, I'm still wondering, what GPU hardware is necessary to run the code?

It requires not just any Nvidia GPU but "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060, Quadro RTX 3000, TITAN RTX or higher"...

Nvidia GPUs only.

I asked it what hardware would be necessary to do that and it said an nVidia V100 GPU lol

Question, does this require specialized hardware at all? GPUs?

ericlewis | karma 494 | avg karma 1.11 · | 2022-04-05 11:33:26

I would be surprised if it didn’t require an RTX to be useful.

If I want to use this program do I have to have a good GPU in my computer to run this program or I just need to install the required software?

Looks nice! But some informations about the hardware requirement are often missing in this kind of project :

- how much ram is needed

- what CPU do you need for decent performances

- can it run on a GPU? And if it does how much vram do you need / does it work only on Nvidia?

Wow, I guess I wouldn’t have thought there would be GPU support. What’s the mechanism for this?

dagurp | karma 1451 | avg karma 3.13 · | 2022-12-29 07:50:06

Same here. It doesn't use any GPU.

Had a cursory look so sorry if I missed something but does this run on the GPU? If not what's the point?

sharkenstein | karma 4 | avg karma 0.5 · | 2018-03-30 17:15:14+00:00

I've always been curious about this. How can I try it out if I already own a GPU?

Why does the window manager require any type of GPU?

mikrl | karma 933 | avg karma 2.44 · | 2023-03-30 17:50:53

Then you attach it to a graphics engine…
