    Oh, that’s very interesting!

    I do have a 4 that I use as an emulation machine. I should try some older DOS games, I guess. Thanks!

      I’ve been experimenting with both of these and recently wrote up a guide for installing FEX on postmarketOS (as I am testing it on my phone and tablet) but the steps should work for Pi as well.

      I also just made a video tutorial/demo on YouTube. I ran Half Life 2 and Tomb Raider (2013). I’m not sure how capable the Pi 4 GPU is in comparison to the Adreno GPUs I tested.

        That’s crazy, thanks for sharing.

        I like that hardware, too.
