Using EE/VU cycle speedhacks increase the speed but reduce the smoothness, not recommended. Reducing clamps cause more issues, not recommended. 60/60FPS using progressive mode even without speedhacks but it is less smooth in this mode. 45-60/60 in normal mode with only recommended hacks. | ||

|Workaround=You can either: Use native resolution or use 1260x(any) resolution. You can subtract any multiple of 60 from 1260 (eg, 1200, 1140, 1080, etc) as needed for performance, but no horizontal resolution greater than 1260 works.
