A growing number of people are voicing concerns regarding inconsistent frame rates while using the Citra emulator, with reports suggesting game speeds fluctuate between 30 and 60 fps. This has raised eyebrows among gamers who expect better performance given their hardware.
Many users have taken to forums to share their experiences. "I see 60fps, but it feels like it's switching between 30 and 60. My AMD Ryzen 5 7600k and 6900XT should handle this better," one gamer stated.
Some believe Citra's performance issues might stem from CPU limitations, suggesting better results with processors that excel in single-core performance.
Others recommend switching to the Azahar build of Citra, claiming it offers stable performance even on less powerful machines. A user remarked, "Azahar works perfect and easy 60fps with no stuttering."
Thereโs also skepticism surrounding cheat codes potentially inflating fps readings, with one user hinting, "Did you put the cheat code for those FPS ratings?"
"Citra is still alive and kicking, just not the MMJ version," remarked another contributor, emphasizing the ongoing support from the community despite its limitations.
A few people have shared tweaks that might improve performance:
Disable FSAA and 3D codes to see improvements.
Focus on optimizing CPU settings for better single-thread execution.
