VRAM on the n64 is notoriously slow.
- msk-lywenn 7mo agoIt's RAM that is notoriously slow. VRAM is fast, but there's only 4K...
- charcircuit 7mo agoThat 4K buffer is not VRAM. The 4/8MB of RAM is also used as VRAM.
- msk-lywenn 7mo agoWell, it’s texture RAM, the only one that RDP can access. It’s closest thing to « video memory ». Although, you’re right as the framebuffer lives in main ram. But that just means the system is sharing like in modern hardware, so I wouldn’t call the main RAM VRAM in any way.
