PCBox is an open-source, low-level PC emulator and a fork of 86Box (which is itself a fork of PCem). Beyond the features 86Box has, it emulates Intel Pentium 3, VIA C3 and Intel i815 (from "feature/ich2" branch of 86Box) and features experimental coreboot support on some emulated boards (from "feature/mtrr" branch of 86Box).

Overview

[edit | edit source]

In the future, the author intends to implement: Intel Pentium 4 emulation (including SSE2), AMD Athlon and AMD Athlon XP emulation, more accurate Intel Pentium 3 speeds, new (optional) dynamic recompiler that sacrifices timing accuracy for speed, and x86_64 emulation (far future).
