Even really dumb thinks like checking your monitor cable. Is it hooked up to the rx 480 and not the intel iGPU/mothermoard? Also drivers and check your CPU clock while running Dolphin.
Thank you both for the ideas. It's good to know what a 2500k should be able to do. I'm overclocked to 4.0 Ghz, so close to yours, but obviously not with the performance.
All my cables seem connected, and the GPU driver is updated, so I don't think it's anything there. Other modern games seem to run fine, but obviously something is effecting performance. The CPU showed running at 4 when I loaded Dolphin last night, and I didn't see anything in the task manager when I tried to monitor it while running Dolphin.
The mystery continues! Thanks for the advice.
