Like I said in my 4th post on page 1, I did exactly that, and saw no performance increase whatsoever, whether the card was running at 324MHz or 1267MHz.
Worse performance with newer/better GPU?

Well I hope they fix it soon or I may sell my card and get a 7970. They're dropping to $429 soon I heard. I'd rather not because I love how cool and quiet and power efficient the GTX 670 is but I want to be able to play my older games and my emulators.

I'm running Dolphin on a 3770k/GTX 690 setup, and I found that creating a profile on NVIDIA Control Panel, and NVIDIA Inspector, and setting everything to maximum actually helped performance in my system. To give you an idea, running F-Zero GX at 1X IR and no enhancements at all, is much slower than 3X IR with 16AF, 32x CSAA, etc. It still won't achieve full speed in some tracks like Sand Ocean and Port Town, no matter the settings* though.
I've also found that enabling* "Skip EFB access from CPU" does produce an unflinching 60fps, at absolutely all times, even on Sand Ocean, at the cost of completely disabling the heat effect over the track and its surroundings. It looks like I'm going to have to wait for my Haswell/Maxwell combo (slightly overclocked) next year to see this thing running full-speed! 07-18-2012, 04:18 AM

Just tested the new driver via DX9, AA off @ 1920x1080 (settings I used to use for my 4890HD card) and the issue appears to be gone now!
In Metroid Prime I still get GPU-related slow down if I use the infra-red visor in this spot http://i.imgur.com/xnFmF.jpg (page 3 of this thread) but to be fair I never tried running the IR visor from there with my old card. Playing the game as normal, how it should be played, Metroid Prime plays as smoothly as I remember it running on my 4890HD (DX9). |
