To compete with the incoming 3D revolution, Sega utilized <strong>two 32-bit Hitachi SH-2 CPUs<\/strong> running at 28.6 MHz. Graphics were handled by two distinct custom video processors: <strong>VDP1<\/strong> (handling sprites and 3D polygons drawn as quadrilaterals, not triangles) and <strong>VDP2<\/strong> (handling infinite background planes and hardware scaling\/rotation).\n        <\/p>\n        <p class=\"rw-detail-p\" style=\"color:#b8b8c8; margin-bottom: 18px; font-size: .93rem;\">\n          Audio was equally over-engineered, driven by a custom Motorola 68EC000 processor paired with a <strong>Yamaha FH1 DSP<\/strong> capable of 32 channels of FM synthesis and PCM sampling. The console also featured a cartridge slot for memory expansion, enabling the 4MB RAM carts necessary for flawless ports of Capcom&#8217;s heavy-hitting 2D fighters.\n        <\/p>\n        <ul style=\"list-style: none; margin: 28px 0 0; padding: 0; display: flex; flex-direction: column; gap: 8px;\">\n          <li style=\"display: flex; align-items: flex-start; gap: 14px; padding: 16px 20px; background: rgba(255,255,255,.02); border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.06); border-radius: 6px;\">\n            <span style=\"color:var(--cyan); font-size:.7rem; padding-top:3px;\">\u25b8<\/span>\n            <div><span style=\"display:block; color:#ddd; font-family:'Rajdhani', sans-serif; font-size:.75rem; font-weight:700; letter-spacing:1px; text-transform:uppercase;\">CPUs &#038; Graphics<\/span><span style=\"color:var(--muted); font-size:.82rem;\">Dual Hitachi SH-2 \/ VDP1 &#038; VDP2<\/span><\/div>\n          <\/li>\n          <li style=\"display: flex; align-items: flex-start; gap: 14px; padding: 16px 20px; background: rgba(255,255,255,.02); border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.06); border-radius: 6px;\">\n            <span style=\"color:var(--cyan); font-size:.7rem; padding-top:3px;\">\u25b8<\/span>\n            <div><span style=\"display:block; color:#ddd; font-family:'Rajdhani', sans-serif; font-size:.75rem; font-weight:700; letter-spacing:1px; text-transform:uppercase;\">Audio<\/span><span style=\"color:var(--muted); font-size:.82rem;\">Custom Motorola 68EC000 &#038; Yamaha DSP<\/span><\/div>\n          <\/li>\n          <li style=\"display: flex; align-items: flex-start; gap: 14px; padding: 16px 20px; background: rgba(255,255,255,.02); border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.06); border-radius: 6px;\">\n            <span style=\"color:var(--cyan); font-size:.7rem; padding-top:3px;\">\u25b8<\/span>\n            <div><span style=\"display:block; color:#ddd; font-family:'Rajdhani', sans-serif; font-size:.75rem; font-weight:700; letter-spacing:1px; text-transform:uppercase;\">MediaFormats<\/span><span style=\"color:var(--muted); font-size:.82rem;\">.chd .cue\/.bin .iso<\/span><\/div>\n          <\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"rw-detail-col rw-detail-col--purple\">\n        <div class=\"rw-detail-head\" style=\"display: flex; align-items: center; gap: 14px; margin-bottom: 30px; padding-bottom: 22px; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.06);\">\n          <div style=\"width: 9px; height: 9px; border-radius: 50%; background: var(--purple); box-shadow: 0 0 12px var(--purple);\"><\/div>\n          <h3 class=\"rw-detail-h3\" style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 1.6rem; font-weight: 700; text-transform: uppercase;\">Rec0m88 Saturn Emulation<\/h3>\n        <\/div>\n        <p class=\"rw-detail-p\" style=\"color:#b8b8c8; margin-bottom: 18px; font-size: .93rem;\">\n          Saturn emulation is notoriously demanding due to the synchronization required between its multiple processors.

This gives Saturn 3D games a very distinct, blocky, yet highly textured look that emulation preserves accurately.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"rw-faq-item\">\n        <h3 style=\"margin: 0 0 10px; color: var(--cyan); font-family: 'Rajdhani', sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; font-weight: 700; letter-spacing: .5px; text-transform: uppercase;\">How do I play multi-disc games like Panzer Dragoon Saga?<\/h3>\n        <p style=\"margin: 0; color: #b8b8c8; font-size: .9rem; line-height: 1.7;\">Similar to PS1, you need to create an <strong>.m3u<\/strong> playlist file containing the names of all the discs (e.g., Disc 1.chd, Disc 2.chd).
