The i5 has always been awesome for PC gaming because very few PC games make use of multi-threaded CPUs (let's face it, it's not a fixed technology architecture like consoles) so the i5's brute force power per core makes it great. This is why people with i7 and Ryzen CPUs have better success due to the multi-threaded nature of their cores. It just doesn't have the real estate RPCS3 needs to run both the game and decode the audio. I'm fairly certain it's the fact the i5 runs 6 cores/6 threads. I'm running an i5 9600k with an RTX 3080 and 32GB of DDR4 3200 RAM and I can't get the audio to work regardless of the settings used (game runs smoothly at 30-50fps otherwise). Mainly posted this because I hate when people figure things out and say, "Oh nevermind, I figured it out!" only to leave everyone else with the issue guessing. If anybody has any suggestions to my configuration or any criticism, feel free to post! I likely won't adjust mine since the game works flawlessly for me, but this may help somebody else trying to get NCAA 14 to run. My game runs smoothly with no FPS spikes or dips, 60 FPS in the menus and 25-35 in game. The audio works beautifully now with no cutting, chopping or stuttering. If I'm understanding correctly, this may cause some significant FPS loss on some machines, so be aware of that. I believe changing Enable SPU Loop Detection from "true" to "false" fixed the sound issue. I actually figured it out just after I posted this.
