## FAQ ## FAQ
### Can I get an exe?
**NO**. I am not releasing binaries - at least not for awhile. Don't be an
idiot and download a binary claiming to be of this project. In fact, don't
be an idiot and download *any* binary claiming to be an Xbox 360 or PS3
emulator from *any* source, especially not YouTube videos and shady websites.
Come on people. Jeez.
### What kind of machine do I need to run this?
You'll need 64-bit Windows 7 with a processor supporting at least SSE4.
It's only tested on Windows 8 and that may become a requirement as several of
the APIs exposed there are beneficial to emulation. In general if you have to
ask if your machine is good enough to run games at a decent speed the answer is
no.
### What about Linux/OSX?
The project is designed to support non-Windows platforms but until it's running
games it's not worth the maintenance burden. If you're a really passionate
Linux/OSX-based developer and want to help out, run Bootcamp/VM and contribute
an OpenGL 4 driver - that'll be the most difficult part in porting to
non-Windows platforms.
### What kind of GPU do I need?
DirectX 11 support is required. To get full speed and compatibility Mantle may
be required in the future (which means R9 AMD cards and up).
