| [[QEMU i440fx machine type|pc]]
| pc
| Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996)
|This is the default machine. This machine emulates a PC from circa 1996, although this doesn't hinder its ability to run newer operating systems or emulate newer CPUs. If you want more stability, it is recommended to use this.

| [[QEMU q35 machine type|pc]]
| q35
| Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009)
| This is another machine in QEMU which emulates a PC from circa 2009. This machine is faster and more efficient, and takes up less resources but at a slight cost of stability. This is recommended for Windows 10 guests, as it makes it much faster. '''Note:''' Windows XP and below cannot be installed on this machine because the setup will crash with a BSOD.
| The Micro VM is designed to be a minimalist PC which does not have a PCI bus or ACPI. It is inspired by the Firecracker software developed by Amazon Web Services.
|-
| [[QEMU isapc machine type|isapc]]
| isapc
| ISA-only PC
| This PC emulates a "retro" style PC which does not have a PCI bus. Obviously, sound cards, network cards, etc that use the PCI bus will not work in this.
