    It is powered from a wall outlet microusb adapter, which is rated as 5volt / 2000mA

    At medium overclock setting I still saw the hitching in nes, mega drive, and snes emulators (those were all the ones I tested)

    auswear thanks for the reply, though that did not help (those were already my settings)

    However, for the overclocking that lilbud recommended does seem to have done it. I tested modest then medium and it didn’t help, but then went to Turbo and the problem disappeared! So thanks, its nice to have that fixed.

    I am curious if this is normal for raspberry pi b+ to have to overclock to turbo to play these emulators without hitching? And also how safe is it to always leave it overclocked to turbo all the time?

    Thanks for the reply lilbud. I will try that next chance I get. However, I did already try setting it to “modest” overclocking setting and that made no difference compared to “normal” setting.

    I will try the max setting a little later today, although I’m a little doubtful it will help since the problem is happening even in basic NES games and the hitching interval is so steady at 5 seconds no matter what.
