Lol.
Apparently, you have no idea of what "emulation" means, and how demanding it can be.
CPU : AMD Ryzen 7 3800X
Mobo : Asus PRIME B450-PLUS
GPU : NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070
RAM : 16 Go

Try to use software renderer and set extra rendering threads to 3.

Didn't work, if anything, it slowed it down further. Interesting thing though; It sped up by like 6-7 fps when I took the thread count to "0". Weird huh? I was playing DBZ BT 3 at 40-43FPS as oppose to 25-30FPS.

Then, I chanced it and increased the Speed Hack all the way and I was playing at 50-55FPS. Sometimes it would spike to 58-60FPS. Still weird however, is that at times, even though it was playing at 50-55FPS, it felt like 35-40FPS.

do you have bg processes running? How high is your cpu usage (idle/0threads/3threads)?

On the window itself when playing it says:
EE: 0%
GS: 0%
UI: 125%-130%
State: 0

Don't know if that helps.

Unfortunately that doesn't help. The cpu readouts don't work using the wineskin port.

Just check in the activity monitor the cpu usage.

Will do, let me just drop off my son at Kindergarten first. Be back in 25 minutes or so.

this is with how many sw threads?
How much is your total cpu usage using this amount of sw threads? How much cpu usage do you have if you stop emulation?
