D3D - EFB Scale 3x is causing big slowdowns in SMG1(In latest revisions).

.... and maybe other games.

Some pics (same config with EFB Scale x3 in both revisions):

Rev. 5632

I can see that the Pics of Rev. 5758 just like opening SSAA.
But Rev. 5632 has not.
You sure the setting is the same?

Im using the same cofig in both builds including EFB 3x and SSAA (and my hardware is the same):

Or maybe my hardware is not enough? :S (i don't think so).

Looking at those screenshots I can clearly tell that AA is not working in the first set but is working in the second set. And you need a damn powerful gpu to use 4xSSAA and 3x EFB and still get a decent framerate. So yes, you are getting a slowdown, what do you expect when each frame is being rendered at 4 times the resolution?

i just cry because dolphin does not support dual or dual cores gpu's...with 2 gpu's or 2xccores gpu it can easily be used at 8AA in older gpu's.
i was always found of rather buying 2xGPU then single gpu.it showed better on long runs. ati 3870x2 instead ati 3870 for example.2xgpu on one graphic card.

Yes but if you look at the screenshots you can clearly tell it is only working in the newer revision. If you don't believe me (which would require being blind) try running this test again with AA off in both and post new screenshots.

Do you have any idea how hard it would be to make that work? Since dolphin isn't a major commercial game nvidia and ati would not bother making a driver profile for dolphin therefore unlike most commercial games dolphin would actually have to be designed to use it on the application level instead of the driver level.

Yes, its a revision problem(SSAA in 5632 is not working correctly). Thank you very much guys.

@NaturalViolence
actually it does nothing to do with ati profiles,profiles can be easily edited,but emu it self does not read 2 cores so profiles means nothing.
