This -version is ARM architecture oriented and features MIPS->ARM recompiler by -Ari64, NEON GTE code and more performance improvements.

PCSX-Reloaded -provides a number of plugins to provide basic functionality out of the box. - -PCSX-Reloaded has a very capable Internal HLE BIOS that can run many games -without problems. It is recommended that you use it. However, if you own a -real PlayStation, you may be able to use your own BIOS image. PCSX-Reloaded -will find it in ~/.pcsx/bios/ or /usr/share/psemu/bios/ if you place it there. -This can improve compatibility, especially with certain games and with the -use of memory cards. +version was originally ARM architecture oriented (hence the name) with +its MIPS->ARM dynamic recompilation and assembly optimizations, but more +recently it targets other architectures too.
