PSX emulation is incredibly slow
-
As said. PSX emulation gives me like 10FPS. Picture is frezeeing, sound is frezeeing. Smoothing is OFF, rewind is OFF. Recalbox installed on Zotac ZBOX AD02 Plus (AMD Dual-Core E-350 1600Mhz, Radeon HD 6310, upgraded to 8GB RAM and SSD) which I consider way more than enough to give back some smooth performance. What should I do to fix that?

@zzapzzap it is not that good, only one core is used anyway and it is likely graphic card isn't either. did you activate any kind of enhancing ? if yes disable it, it is very costly.
If you're on the latest stable release, try the beta or wait for next stable, pcs are/will be much better supported on it

@voljega How do I update to beta? If I switch "Update type" from Stable to Custom it won't save and switches back to Stable. And if I swtich from Stable to Beta through web-interface, it also won't save. Btw switching to software render helped a lot, but not completely solved my problem, still too slow to play.

@zzapzzap you don't update to beta, you install it and you won't ever be able to update from it. If you do it please read beta thread first message carefully

That cpu sucks for PSX emulation, single thread performances are barely higher than a raspberry, and it's not an arm cpu so it won't benefit from the arm dynarec. Without an arm cpu, a cpu of ~2.4Ghz is the bare minimum for PSX emulation.

@barbudreadmon That's bad. Zotac had a product lineup full of devices sharing same cases with same drilling etc. I could easily upgrade by getting motherboard with Atom D525 / ION2 or Atom D2550 / GT610 installed. Makes sense?

It would be the same issue, as i said if you want to play PSX and don't want to use an arm cpu, you'll need a cpu @ 2.4Ghz as a minimum. If you don't plan to play something "higher" than psx, you should use a raspberry.
