Im using a dell inspiron n5110, Intel core i7-2670QM 2.2Ghz 4 cores, 12gb ram, and a NVIDIA GT 525M, now the problem is the optimus technology of NVIDIA is just not working fine for me, because Dolphin are not recognizing the GPU, Dolphin starts but using intel hd, i already updated the drivers, unninstalled and reinstalled clean, installed VCredist, directx11, i set the programs (exe) one by one using the nvidia control panel, i set the gpu as primary in nvidia control panel, and still doesn't works, nvidia only works with some programs or games but not with everything as it should, checked with NvOptimusTestViewer64, so what can i do to solve this?


just please, stop telling me that i need to set the programs in the nvidia control panel, it doesn't works, i need a way to make dolphin detects my gpu, also it doesn't works if i left click the exe and choosing manually the gpu, is there any version of the emulator working with this problem?

EDIT: already downloaded latest version (4.0-5930), don't know why my profile says 3.5-367, plus i've tried using 3 3.5 and 4, and a lot of versions of 4, that's not the problem, and i'm using the 3.5 because the problem, thats the version that gets me a better performance (25fps) but only using turbo boost

Your profile says you're using version 3.5-367. Grab the latest dev build from here: https://dolphin-emu.org/download/ (4.0-5930 as of writing) and see if the right-click will allow you to run the Dolphin using Optimus.

Also, when running a game, see what the yellow text in the top left of the screen says. It should tell you what graphics card is being used.

I bet $20 your OS is the problem . My friend had the same issue with his GT 520M , there was nothing could fix his problem except doing a clean install of Windows 8 (not 8.1)

Nvidia Optimus issue . Windows 8 seems to be the best OS for Nvidia mobile GPU . Windows 8.1 doesn't work with my GT 540M unfortunately

Did you try updating? We can't help you if you're using an (extremely) old build.
