Sorry, but this question wasn`t raised by me ..... I only stated that CGFX is slower compared to retinaemu, so some people still use retinaemu instead. >My main reason for wanting CyberGFX is for greater compatibility with >software because of standardized rtg. There is alot more software >available via CyberGFX than with the RetinaEmu. CGFX is available for some boards, but not for all. (e.g. not for RetinaZ2, RainbowIII). Unfortunately there aren`t any dox about writing your own driver available, so you`re not able to adapt your card to the "standard". >And AFAIK, >CyberGFX is indeed faster than most of the emul software already included >with graphics boards. Faster is not true, compared to RetinaEMU using a Z3, or compared to EGS7.2. (EGS is about 2.5 times faster on a EGS-Spectrum)
