Don't worry about a thing. PJ64 works on almost every graphics card out there. Just be sure to get many different graphics plugins for your emulator just in case something goes wrong...

Not quite, for optimum performance, PJ64 expects a video card which supports pixel shaders (most plugins these days use shaders). AFAIK, the Intel GMA900 integrated chips support shaders.....

Well my graphics card is about 4years old, without any kind of pixel shader at all, and it works great!

I'm sure Jabo develops the plugin on a ATI card...and besides, NVIDIA and ATI based integrated chips arn't that bad...Its interesting though that its working great for you though, however I do think that the shader support is used for the high-end graphics effects and blending routines.

Don't worry Pj64 runs fine on Intel integrated graphics, starting from the Intel 845 (may not work well below 845). I've tested pj64 on 845, 865 and 915. And on graphics cards, Ati Radeon 7000 Series 64 MB DDR , Geforce 2 MX 64 MB card and Nvidia Geforce FX 5500 but I got better performance on my Intel 865GBF.

which plugins should i get for Intel 845 and which configurations should i put for it

abhi2001 · February 23rd, 2007

Graphics plugins use: Jabo's Direct3D 6 1.51 and version 1.3. Jabo D3D 8 should also work fine.

Well the truth is High end video cards ones over 2000$ are for game and movie desiging but ones arround 600-800$ like Nvidia Geforce GX2 is more for games like BF2-WOW ect best card i would get for games on here like Mario Kart ect is a ATI Redon 7500 32mb just dosent have pixel shadders but still works great. so get ones arroud 200$ they sould be fine just look at whats in it.

Intel graphics give better performance than low end cards like Geforce 2 MX or 4 MX and a Radeon 7000 so there's nothing to worry about. You could grab the latest graphics drivers for your Intel graphics junio2. That will help as well.
