        @stephenrossi20 try dropping the resolution to 320x240. N64 is so so even on a pi4 since it’s more gpu/bandwidth based and doesn’t use much cpu and therefore can’t take advantage of the better cpu of the pi4

            Overclock your GPU and via the Runcommand, select a recommended N64 Emulator, Resolution, Setting per Rom/Game as detailed in this list below ...
