|0x4
|Clock Rate
|Constant value used by libultra versions 2.0I and earlier, to naively calculate how much real-time has passed based on the CPU's Count register.
The value is masked by 0xFFFFFFF0, then multiplied by 0.75 to account for the CPU clock's multiplier (1.5x) and that the Count register increments every 2 CPU cycles.
However, if the masked value equals zero, libultra defaults to 0x03B9ACA0 (62,500,000) before multiplying by 0.75.
All known ROMs, except those listed below, have this field set to 0x0000000F.

Using Doom 64 as an example, 0x03A07F5F is masked to 0x03A07F50 (60,850,000), and then multiplied by 0.75 equals 0x02B85F7C (45,637,500).
Keep in mind that there is no known way for software to change the clock frequency used by either the RCP or CPU. So if/when games use the Count register divided by 46,875,000 to measure a real-time second, the calculated result will be inaccurate.
[[User:Polprzewodnikowy|Polprzewodnikowy]] from the N64brew Discord, experimented with Doom 64 and Star Fox 64 on real hardware. They found that increasing this value increases the delay before the copyright screen or Nintendo logo (respectively) shows up on screen.
