The oldest iGPU officially supported in 5.0 stable is the Intel HD Graphics 2500/4000 found on 3rd-gen (Ivy Bridge) Intel CPUs, and even those works properly only with DX11. You'll have a hard time running Dolphin with older iGPUs, and that's likely from where most your performance problems are coming from...

I'm full aware of the limits of the intel 3000. I only did it to see how fast mostly out of curiosity. As metion in a previous post I don't use the laptop often. I have far better laptop that I use for gaming and emulation. It specs is a i7 7700hq 32 gb ram and gtx 1070.

Yeah I think that definitely is the problem. I tried running on ishiiruka dolphin and my performance was not improved. Its not even the average fps in mario sunshine thats terrible, its the drops when I try to spray water, completely unplayable lol. Thats ok though, I have a gaming computer and I ordered a new 3ds for all my mobile nintendo gaming needs Smile

Thanks for the help guys.
