#2Sounds really promising. especially 3dfx emulation...

#386box is also great, especially for retro PC gaming support. I can run Windows 98 with a Pentium 233 MMX and Voodoo3 on relatively modest hardware. (AMD 7840HS)

#4I'm a big fan, have been using it for years to play games. It's got a GUI that covers most of the DOSBox config, save states, and can run things like Windows 3 and 95 without much fuss.

#5It's too bad that DOSBox-X doesn't have the Chrous/Reverb feature found in Dosbox Staging. This was a feature of the Sound Blaster AWE64 sound card, and it really enhanced the sound of Adlib music, almost making it sound like a wavetable.

Personally I use DOSBox Pure with RetroArch

#7DosBox-X runs really well out of the box on my Mac M1, and it has some built-in shaders that try to simulate curved CRT geometry that are pretty fun to play with.
Heads up though - it has some coloration/palette issues around using the built-in capture tool to record video, but this is specifically related to Macs.

I found DOSBox-ECE more stable than DOSBox-X. I believe they provide similar set of features.
EDIT: Oops, talked too soon. Apparently DOSBox-ECE has been EOLed :(

My experience with dosbox-x is similar. dosbox-staging is probably the most stable and it's still updated.

#10One feature of DOSBox-X I've come to really appreciate when reverse engineering is that you can toggle the debug log on and off. Additionally, it can display the current VGA palette in the main window.
