Hey all, and I just wanna say thanks before I get into my question cause I wish I could have solved this on my own. However after messing with 5 or 6 games to try get the best configurations and then not really knowing if I a.) Did it correctly and B.) Failing to reach 60fps (or even 40+ in some cases) I'd rather just figure out if my computer is really built to even kind of run some of these games. Once again, thanks a ton and bonus points to anyone who can tell me what I should upgrade next specs wise.
Alright so first off, specs:
Windows Version: Microsoft Windows 8 (build 9200), 64-bit
Processor: AMD FX™-4130 Quad-Core Processor
Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 6670
Total RAM: 8.0 GB
Dolphin: 4.0.2
Most of the games I've tried I get good enough FPS to play, but a lot of times I have issues running certain sections or even the entire game. A quick list of the games I've COMPLETELY LEGALLY OBTAINED and really hope to play are:
-Custom Robo
-Fire Emblem: PoR
-Metal Arms: Glitch in the System
-Metroid Prime: 1 & 2
-Pikmin 2
-Resident Evil 4
-Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
-Legend of Zelda: Ocarina, Majora's, Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess
I have others, but they are not important really. These are the main games I hope to play, and a few I've already tried to mess around with. The main reason I came here to ask is because even in a game like MegaManX, I'd drop down to 30fps when Chameleon used his stealth. I simply brushed that off as a problem with the emulator, but Sonic Adventure 2: Battle doesn't run 60fps and I really expected it to. Metroid Prime was completely unrunable, Wind Waker runs good enough to play but rarely 30fps (It's locked to that for those who don't know), ect. ect. So I want to know, Is there something I can do to run these games perfect 60fps? Or is my computer just not strong enough? Thanks a ton, and sorry if I misread the rules or missed some information.
