Title: Resolution Questions
Post by: killbill on January 14, 2017, 11:51:27 am


Hi Guys,

I'm finishing up programming my arcade system and have a newbie question about recommended resolutions for my set up.

My specs:

i5 quad core 3.4-3.8ghz w/boost

Geforce gtx750ti sc gpu

8gb ram

Win 7 64 bit

I am running everything on a HP LP2065 LCD monitor. It's 4:3 with a native resolution of 1600x1200.  My question is should I run hyperspin and as many of the emulators as possible at my native resolution, or should i run HS at it's native 1024x768 resolution and mix resolutions depending on emulator?

Emulators I am running: MAME, Retroarch, Daphne, Taito TypeX, Demul, MESS, Openbor, MUGEN, some PC Games

Note: I plan on using HLSL in MAME and shaders in Retroarch if that matters.

Any help or advice is truly appreciated. Thanks.
