Game is set to standard settings. 120 fps locked most of the time.
The Windows Store version is a complete game changer compared to Steam. Zero stutter, zero crashes and zero graphical glitches. This game FINALLY runs well, and it is an absolute delight.

Gameplay resolution at 4K. DirectX12 back-end. Radeon Image Sharpening is on.
The NeoGeo is NOT a native 60hz machine. In every single commercial re-release of this game, the game is forced to either run at 60hz (faster) or v-sync AT 60 hz (frame-skips, judders, etc). This makes it EXTREMELY hard to react in any version that isnt running on a NeoGeo in a CRT. Enter RetroArch and the sync to exact content framerate option. With this enabled, my panel is drawing a game frame whenever the frame is complete. Yes, the game is now running at its native frame-rate, and is being displayed PERFECTLY on my panel. I cannot stress enough how difficult it is to play this game if the framerate is not correct. Emulation has come a long way, I am simply in love.

Gameplay recorded with Radeon Relive. Performance while recording decreases by some margin. Normally, the GPU power consumption sits between 40 and 60 watts. GPU utilization of this game is not very high. So this is not a hard game to run at max settings.")
