Hi all, I'm currently using onboard video for the time being because my current video card is going through an RMA process.

Anyway, I was wondering if you can play a game with 30+fps consistently, does the sound of your game in-synch too, or does it chop up and lag a little too from time to time?

I just wanted to know how sound performance is when your video performance is pretty decent.

thats different from game to game and what sounddriver the game is using.
when you have a game with synthesizer music like FFX plays the music slower on low fps.
but the best sound result can you get with the VAG format, it plays well and without lags even with 10 fps!

sorry for that bad english.. :heh:

Are there more than one sound plugin? I am currently using the default one that comes with 0.9.2.

And what is this VAG format?

Vag is a standart PS2 streamed audioformat.
yep there is an other plugin called spu2ghz.
but its still in beta.
