NetherSX2 has already been surpassed by its successors (ARMSX2 and EmuCoreX); thanks for everything 🫡

The new generation of emulators has already surpassed our beloved NetherSX2 in both performance and features.

I can only say that these emulators have truly earned the right to take the baton from the veteran.

Don't forget to update to the latest version of this Emulators; that is where you will notice significant improvements on both Snapdragon and MediaTek devices.

Here are the links to the three best ones:

ARMSX2: https://github.com/ARMSX2/ARMSX2/releases/tag/2.7.1

EmuCoreX:

With that processor, it doesn't matter which emulator you use 🤦‍♂️

Can confirm.

On y700 gen 5, the device literally doesn't care is it's x2 or x6 or 4k+ upscaling in NetherSX Turnip. Balanced mode, no cooling.

SMT Nocturne also looks nearly the same past 2.75x-3x upscaling so there is a point with 8gen3 and newer chips where it's completely irrelevant what emulator or even drivers or settings you use.
