Description

I am on a 3060 and a Ryzen 3700X 8 core, and that opening conker scene brings my computer to a CRAWL. No matter what settings I change my computer struggles to run at more than 25 fps. I have tried changing every possible setting and after seeing that none impacted the performance I am chalking it up to an issue with the emulator itself.

Is this a known issue? I saw one YouTube comment from 4 years ago of someone saying they had a similar experience, but no one else I can find has had such an issue.

If there is anything I could send over to help diagnose the specific issue, let me know!

Research direction

Start by reproducing the opening Conker scene on the reported 3060 and Ryzen 3700X setup, testing whether the frame rate remains near 25 FPS across the available settings. Collect the diagnostic information needed to isolate the emulator issue; done means identifying a reproducible cause and verifying improved performance or documenting the limitation.
