Althon 64 + GFX card: RADEON X800 XT Platinum Edition x86/MMX/3DNow!/SSE2

:bow: OMG....that's is really some good hardware for PSX emulation...

EDIT: Use Alcohol 120% to create an image of your CD. It seems that your CD is pretty worn out, causing sound breaks, cutoffs.

Yes, an ISO will help you get out of this situation.

Try installing the Windows XP 64-Bit Edition here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/64bit/default.mspx

His computer is able to max out all settings as with my system and obtained 49.9fps with all settings maxed.

My cousin's computer runs Half-Life 2 at 70-80fps in Windows XP 64-bit Edition. However, exercise caution with it like what hushy has said...it is still in its BETA testing stage.

Lowering the resolution might help.

Have you tried FORCING VSYNC on in the Cataylst Control Panel?

 

[fireblaster_lyz]

I was SUSPECTING your monitor as MAYBE it nearly exceed your refresh rate...that's why I told you to reduce the resolution to a lower one. BUT....

EDIT: Oh man...the Vsync thing is buried deep....you must activate Custom Settings in order to adjust that.

 

[fireblaster_lyz]

Nope....that's is already the limit of PSX emulation.
Why don't you try adjusting everything to quality int he Catasyst Control Panel?

 

[fireblaster_lyz]

Post your CDR config.

If possible, make an ISO image of the CD.

 

[fireblaster_lyz]

haha...yes, you got it.

Set to Async, Smooth with a buffer size of 32.

EDIT: Given your com specs, you can drive the buffer size to 4/8. This reduces further delay in sound transmission.

OT: A X800 card in Singapore isn't cheap....costing as much as S$1100...I was wondering how much would it cost in the US?
