Some games need sh4 overclocked, for example: you can get VOOT working with sh4 cpu at 120%. If you get black screen in some games, try overclocking sh4.
The "SH4" is the emulated dc cpu in chankast. Now in Chanka 0.2 they have added the ability for you to Overclock or Underclock the sh4 cpu. You can do this by pressing the + or - key on your numpad. fuck with it a little until you get the best results for the game your playing. Some games go faster when you overclock the sh4 and other games go faster when you underclock it, This is actaully due to what kind of system you have. And depending on your system the + might mean underclocking the sh4 and the - might mean overclocking it. So this is a really great feature because it can give you that fps boost you always wanted.
I've noticed that if I underclock the SH4 CPU the Video becomes faster , and overclocking SH4 makes the Video Slower (at least in Ikaruga) , but sometimes the Audio skips if the CPU is underclocked . How this works? The emulator reserve more resources to the video when the CPU is Underclocked and more to the CPU when Overclocked?
