Whats the advantage of using SDL Builds?

There are several advantages using SDL Builds. First, you may notice a faster redraw rate if you are using SDL Build; this is because all (some?) graphics processing in PearPC is done by your graphics card instead of your CPU. This allows Pearpc to run more smoothly. Of course, to use the SDL Build, you need to have a good graphics card such as nVidia or ATI which has atleast 8 MB Onboard Memory. If you are using a card with poor OpenGL drivers, such as integrated graphics or an older PCI graphics card, you may experience graphical corruption.
