Tips for best performance and reliability

• Use a high-quality, high-speed SD card or USB drive (UHS-I or better) or install to eMMC where possible.
• Prefer ext4 for game libraries when using Linux-native storage to preserve permissions and symlink behavior; FAT32/NTFS if you need cross-platform access.
• Enable frame delay and adjust audio latency in RetroArch per core for smoother gameplay on slower devices.
• For heavy systems (N64, Dreamcast), use the most optimized cores available and lower internal resolution or disable expensive post-processing shaders.
• Keep a backup of your /storage/roms and /storage/.config folders to avoid losing saves and settings when updating.
