Benchmark scores with Chankast v0.25

Well I'm half-considering getting something like an A64 3200+ for Christmas.
'course, I'll have to buy a new motherboard and RAM for the machine, but I'm sure it'll be worth it.

It's a pain though, I just bought a Radeon 9800 Pro this week (upgrading from my old 9100), and I'm suprised how little difference it makes with this emulator (a little disappointing considering I never really play many PC games). Maybe when this emulator starts to use plugins at 1.0, a plugin might mean my video card might make more of an impact.

To be honest, the fps in Soul Calibur goes up and down like a yo-yo, sometimes as high as 40fps, dropping to unplayable at other times.

I've never had Soul Calibur become unplayable. Sometimes the battles can be a little slow but they have always been very playable on Chankast on my 1.7 GHz Pentium 4 with 512 megabytes of SDRAM.

OK, because I find Soul Calibur to still be pretty playable even if it is running at around 15 FPS.

Hey guys :)

I thought I'd post my score, been busy with work so been unable to post on here much :(.

But I thought I would :)

Got me self a new CPU and motherboard upgrade and I must say wow it's fast now :)

Especially in chankast :)

Bench marks:

Street Fighter Third Strike about 80 FPS all the time it's insane lol on CPU 100

IsKauga game about 60 FPS sometime 70

Anyways still testing with me new setup will post more later :)

Take care

my god whats wrong with this forum...I had a terible lags to reply this post :yucky:

by the way i made my benchmark between my computer and my bro's notebook. here are the specs..forgot to tell u that im new here..Minna ,Hajime maste (nice to meet u all)


My pc
Sampron 2200(1.5)Mhz
Ati Radeon 9550 125mb
512mb DDR400 Ram

My bro notebook
ACER Centrino 1.5Mhz
Ati Radeon 9700 64mb
256 mb DDR400 Ram

Alright, the game that I tested was Soul Calibur. I set it at 800x600 resolution and here are the result..

My pc
Intro scene = realtime randered at 50fps but slightly unstable, it drops to 40,30 sometimes.
Menu = realtime randered at 50 fps
In game = blah slow only 25 fps
buddha stage = quite slow only at 30 fps
Inferno stage = quite slow only at 30 fps

My bro notebook
Intro scene = realtime rendered at 50fps sometimes jumps to 70fps
Menu = realtime randered at 50fps
In game = quite slow only at 30 fps
buddha stage = realtime rendered at 50 fps (T^T*pissed)
Inferno stage = realtime rendered at 50 fps (T^T*pissed)

Conclution
I really enjoyed play SC on my bro notebook especially in practice mode..in practice mode I can choose budha stage and start playing it without lagness..Therefore I give my opinion that grafic card plays an important role in achieving better framerate..So i am determine to get better graphic cards and replace my crappy 9550..Since someone had tried NVIDIA GeForce6800GT and run SC with error...maybe I should buy X800 series then..thats all about the benchmark :happy:

Actually, it's probably the Pentium-M that did it since they are clock for clock as fast as Athlon64s. Your low-end Sempron is much slower than any Pentium-M in gaming. The Graphics card makes almost no difference since I upgraded to a 6800 Ultra from a FX 5600 and the frame rate barely went up since I still had the same processor. The only difference it makes is that I can use crazy-high resolutions and filtering with almost no performance penalty.

OK, here I go:

CPU: AMD Sempron 2600+
Chipset: NForce 2 Ultra 400
RAM: 1 GB DDR-333 in Dual-Channel mode
OS: Windows XP Professional SP2
GPU: GeForce 6600 GT 128 MB GDDR3

Game tested: Sonic Adventure 2 (only 3d stages menus don't count):

well, depending on the stage the FPS go from 30 FPS to 60 FPS (sometimes above, meaning the game runs too fast)... average is about 40..

in a stage like White Jungle the framerate drops to 30 including many many polygon errors (the known Nvidia bug that you cannot see anyhting doesn't apply to Geforce 6 series)... on the other hand, stages without many effects (like boss stages) are about 50 to 60...

Here it goes....
CPU: Pentium 4 prescott lga775 3.0ghz overclocked to 3.6ghz :evil:
Memory: 512 DDR400 RAm :happy:
Video Card: ATI X300 se 209/351 :paperbag:

I was told by cooliscool that Chankast was CPU dependent and not gpu dependent but i didnt believe him till I saw for my self after some serious overclocking. :evil:

In bios I went from 130fps with 3.0ghz to 160fps with 3.6ghz
Im gonna only report my 3.6ghz speed in the following games with default settings.

Sonic adventure 2: 165fps at intro and menus 40-50fps ingame

Capcom vs SNK: 150 fps in intro and menus 75fps ingame

couldnt help posting a few shots... :saint:

See my signature.

With soul calibur I get 55 FPS at 1280x1024, 60 fps at 800x600.

At one point, I had updated my drivers and soul calibur went REALLY slow (20 fps). I reverted back to a couple of versions behind and I went back to full speed.
