So, it makes full use of the drivers? I was advised by someone else in another thread to do so.

If so, do we have to tweak any settings after adding it?

You do indeed have to put it in there under a high-performance profile. Anything more specific, I don't know – I haven't used these drivers, I just know that this is the normal procedure.

Hi,

Do you mean like this? See screenshot.

Can anyone else who use nVidia card to play Dolphin games state if any specific settings have to be changed in the control panel?

Change "Power Management Mode" from "Adaptive" to "Prefer Maximum Performance".

Thanks, I have done that and how do you know for sure it is using the nVidia card on Windows 8.1?

Because the option obviously isn't there to control the goddamn Intel GPU's power management mode.

If you're not sure your Nvidia GPU's in use, check GPU-Z to see if it's at full clockspeed and at a non-zero amount of load when running Dolphin.

Hi,

I used nVidia inspector and it was running when I ran a game for a seconds. See attachment.

Very low load though.

Low load is fine, it's zero load that's bad. I wouldn't expect much load on Metroid Prime's mostly title screen.

The reported clockspeeds seem fine (e.g. even at that low a load it's going near-full-tilt at 700 MHz anyway), so unless your shit overheats you'll have zero clockspeed-related speed issues.

Thanks for all your help mate. It wasn't overheating.

Send me a PM, please.
