Any ideas for improving performance?

1) Upgrade the CPU
2) Overclock the CPU

In all seriousness though, you CPU is very weak for MH3. MH3 is a somewhat demanding game to play, and your system is bottlenecked by the CPU. Turning down the IR aka "the graphics" will not result in a speed up, since that's handled by the GPU. I have the same GPU, so I can safely say that unless you have the IR and AA turned up fairly high (4x IR + various amounts of AA), you won't bottleneck the GPU ordinarily.

Now, you can use the very latest Dolphin revisions. They've been speeding things up recently. If you do, update to the latest Nvidia driver as well; this will let Dolphin do some magic when using OpenGL that may improve overall speed. So upgrade Dolphin, your drivers, and give OpenGL a try.

Hi.
Is there a PPA/DEB for the latest Dolphin? I just added a PPA that I found with Google.
My CPU is one of the fastest available for this socket type (FM2/FM2+). It's actually not a 'very weak' CPU at all (although it's obviously no i5/i7..), and it's overclocked @ 4.4Ghz.

What exactly is IR? Do you mean Infra Red? How does that relate to the graphics?

P.S. Is this any help? (and please excuse the fact it looks like I'm humping the pig..><)
