Hi!
I have kinda of a prob here. I have a Phenom II 955 and the performance with Dolphin (x64 r6321) is a terrible. I tried Mario Kart Double Dash and Mario Party 4 and 7, and the frame rate barely stays at 30 fps in game (it only hits 60 on title screens). The thing is, I've tried the same emulator with the same settings and roms on a Q6600 and there it works flawlessly. Performance is great and I get constant FPS between 50-60.
So, the Q6600 is clearly inferior to the Phenom II 955. Is Dolphin optimized only for Intel? Or what is happening here?
PS: I tried with the Direct3D9 plugin and checking "to texture" in the options. The rest is "out of the box". Both CPUs were at their stock clocks.
Edit: Bleh, forget it. Going at minimum res (800x600) makes the fps go to 40-45, sometimes 50. Seems like my crappy HD4200 is killing me here. I thought this was based on CPU power, but actually my GPU is limiting. Well, I'm out of luck with my little Phenom
