Dolphin and Windows 8.1 = lagg?

[S1mpl3pl4n5496]

hi guys!

tried your advices but nothing helped.... i dont have the possibility to change the hyperthreading.... and the dev. builds make the video quality worse....

so i tried to install the dolphin on my hdd (before it was on the ssd) and it worked! seems dolphin does not like it if i use several devices :-)

so im fine and can play my games again... without laggs!

thanks anyway!

sounds like the notebook is overheating

Your issue is similar to mine, im hoping to have a solution to it soon follow this topic:

yeah before you check out that solution check your temperatures throttling can cause lag too

overheat? never thought about that .... so i will try to find out, what temperature i got when i play.... is there a difference if i play in window mode or full screen? so i would open a tool at the same time and look then...

what temperature would be good - what would be too hot???

hey its me again.... sorry had a busy time....

i checked with the tool coretemp the temperature.

sometimes it goes up to 85 degrees, but most of the time 60-80 degrees...

do you think that is too much?

i sometimes recognized a lagg when i reached the 85 degrees, but only sometimes and there was only a little lagg, not the 2-3 sec lagg i used to have :/

That seems reasonable, since it's a laptop.

do the "i" series CPUs and chipsets still park cores?

also sometimes hyperthreading hurts performance on some applications and games.

the newer dev builds may look worse if it wipes out your gfx settings and defaults to standard definition.
