It's time to play "Lets find the bottleneck!" wheeee!

it's either hardware or software... and your hardware surpasses mine twofold. So your bottleneck is probably software. Start with updating all drivers *appropriately!* Then check your runtime environment. SH4 can only use available resources. if something else is using (abusing) your precious resources, you must SQUASH it.
LOL

I haven't enough tears for all the supergaming rigs out there choking on unwanted processes, corrupt video drivers, and active virus-protection. I can hear their cries while at sea:
