Coould do. Would Virtualbox pass everything right through, or will it only pass things through, that are properly installed on the host system?
How much faster is 64bit Dolhpin compared to 32bit Dolphin? I only have 4GB RAM, so I'm not sure how much I'd benefit from Win7 64bit. 05-14-2011, 01:31 AM
With usb you can chose the devices that you want to use on the virtualiz OS
Devices that are not usb i don't know i will do some test at home a OS of 32 bit can't use all the 4 GB only 3.2 or similar

Quote:OK, seeing as this card is more then three years old and is comparable with a 8800 GT It's a d3d10.1 card with an R700 series GPU using the VLIW5 architecture, which means it's still modern. It's performance is comparable to a $100 card by modern standards. It is not anywhere close to outdated/obsolete thanks to the comparably slow progress in the graphics card industry these last few years. A modern card would support d3d11 (which almost no games actually take advantage of yet) and be able to achieve the same performance for less power consumption/noise/size. I don't see the benefit in paying an extra $70-80 for that. To me that's a total waste of money. If I was in the market for a low end video card and I had an 8800GT lying around I would say to myself "WTF. Why am I looked to spend money on something I already have?" and pop that sucker in instead. Not that any of this matters since he says it's too big unfortunately. But under any other circumstance that would be bad advice.

But we're all different and my advices and solutions may not be suited for everybody. I'm sorry 'bout that. |
