Sorry if this has been answered earlier...opr in the faqs...but I aint seen anything...anyways

What sort of framerates are you guys expecting/getting on some of the "newer" games....

My system:
P4 1.9ghz
Nvidia geforce4mx
320mb
win xp pro
PJ 1.4, latest rdb, gfx=jabos, sound, Azimer's 0.4 beta

Conkers : mostly sticks around 56-60fps, but drops to like 20 at seemingly random times [I may have missed something in the gamefaq on this, as it seems to pause everynow and again, with the fps dropping right down, and then coming back up]

Jet force G (cracked) : mosty sticks at a pretty unplayable < 20 fps

Donky Kong : between 50-60 fps most of the time

Sin and punishment : 57-60 pretty solid

Zelda MM : 50-60 pretty solid

Pretty much all of the older games are solid at 57-60

What is everyone else getting.

The average tou should get is 50 or 60 FPS
But there are hysys req ames that can run slow even on an 1.4 GHz

CBFD slows down every now and then, I think it happens when new background music is played (mp3 decompression).

From what I remember, speech decoding and scene changes were the only significantly skippy times I remember in CBFD.

Just standing there, listening to the music doesn't skip here but it does skip whenever something new [or discarded] is about to pop [back] into view.
