This setup involves two computers. On Computer A: Windows 10 Pro version 10.0.19045, MAG X570S TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI motherboard, AMD Ryzen 9 5950X with 16 cores, 32GB RAM, and a G.Skill RTX 3060 Ti GPU. Computer B runs Windows 10 Pro same as A but uses a different setup. It features an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D with 8 cores, 64GB RAM, and the same RTX 3060 Ti GPU. Performance varies: A can handle multiple Desmume instances smoothly for extended periods, while B struggles with lag after short sessions, crashes after about 10 minutes, and drops to around 4fps. The task manager shows unusual power usage on B, and its settings file (DESMUME.ini) appears problematic. Some adjustments in the emulator settings can extend stability, but overall B seems to have compatibility issues with Desmume.
