| Consoles in the USA and Europe run at different speeds due to the different television standards used. The main differences between the NTSC and PAL PPUs is as follows:
| | #REDIRECT [[Cycle reference chart]] |
| {| border=1
| |
| ! Property || NTSC || PAL
| |
| |-
| |
| | Master clock speed || 21.477272MHz<br>= 236.25 MHz / 11 || 26.601712MHz
| |
| |-
| |
| | PPU clock speed || 21.477272MHz / 4 || 26.601712MHz / 5
| |
| |-
| |
| | Corresponding CPU clock speed || 1/3 PPU clock speed || 1/3.2 PPU clock speed
| |
| |-
| |
| | Height of picture || 240 scanlines || 240 scanlines
| |
| |-
| |
| | Nominal visible picture height<br>(see [[Overscan]]) || 224 scanlines || 268 scanlines
| |
| |-
| |
| | Length of VBLANK || 20 scanlines || 70 scanlines
| |
| |-
| |
| | Timing quirks || First scanline is one PPU cycle shorter during every other frame || None

| |
| Other than these differences (and video output), the NTSC and PAL PPUs function exactly the same.
