VRAM goes vroom vroom.

I emailed him the video from OP and he mentioned they’ve done some collaboration. I’m assuming there’s a retro programming discord that I’m not worthy of.

A lot of stuff is happening on the n64brew discord. https://discord.gg/WqFgNWf

VRAM on the n64 is notoriously slow.

It's RAM that is notoriously slow. VRAM is fast, but there's only 4K...

That 4K buffer is not VRAM. The 4/8MB of RAM is also used as VRAM.

Well, 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.
