I just wanted to say hello to everyone. I recently acquired a Global VR Ultra Pin and was wondering what is the best route (no pun intended) to upgrade it to one of the newer emulators? I am assuming I will have to upgrade the PC (do I just need a new graphics card or entire swap?).

Hey welcome CosmicChasm. Â Not sure what the specs are in the machine you describe, perhaps post specs.
In general you just need a good video card to run Visual Pinball, I’m not sure what you plan to do exactly especially in regards to VR but what issues are you having? Â You’re running FP with BAM, what are you using with VR?
For my pincab I run a 1070ti and I’m able to run pretty much all VP tables at top settings.

Currently this is all stock the way it shipped from Global VR back in 2009/2010. So I am confident it will need a PC upgrade (easy part). What I want to do is upgrade the software to what ever is best for the cabinet/hardware.

Im sure you will need a PC upgrade but you never know until you provide the specs of your system. Maybe it has been upgraded already?

The specs are:
- Pentium D 3 GHz (925)
- 1 GB of ram
- 40 GB HD
Yeah, I think is safe to say this is all original hardware.

A normal Intel CPU machine with 8GB ram, and a Nvidia 750ti or better. The more money you put into the GPU the better I guess. I have a 750ti, and I also have a 4k monitor. I can’t run higher than 1080p but with the recent updates it seems I can run with some AA that I couldn’t before. I will upgrade my GPU, but, as long as I can run all tables fine with the setup I have I’m just waiting for the price to come down on those 1080’s.

Should I upgrade the monitor too (I would think so)? I have no idea the model installed, other then its 10 years old and 32″.
