I don't think my cpu being slow is causing this abnormal slowdown after a period of time .. I have no problems maxing anything
again using minimal settings here..

Emulation speed slowdown the longer I play.

Thanks for all the help guys I'll try to get some thermal paste get my temps down and try again next week it must be something with my temps / setup as nobody else seems to be having this problem. Thanks again.

well....it is the CPU overheating. when i use dolphin emulator on my Intel i5 laptop it works perfectly with 60fps. but the problems only start when the CPU starts overheating. when i first experienced CPU was overheating the FPS (frames per second) would drop and would not stay steady. so i bought the thermaltake massive 23 lx laptop cooler and it did improve performance on my laptop and it also made the Dolphin Emulator Run better. so far i have had no issues.
So My Guess Is Maybe The CPU is Not Cooled Properly (or CPU is overheating) SPECS: Intel core i5 2430m 2.4ghz with turbo-boast up to 3.0ghz Intel HD GRAPHICS 3000 15.6 inch led lcd screen 6gb ram 1tb hard drive AND MAKE SURE YOU USE THE NEWEST VERSION Quote:it did improve performance on my laptopBy reducing only 2-3 degrees celsius Notebook cooler keep your laptop running cool on the surface rather than actually improving temps inside (CPU - GPU) Your laptop doesn't have a dedicated GPU , you shouldn't worry about overheating unless the thermal compound was dead Quote: my Intel i5 laptop it works perfectly with 60fpsDepending on the game . I doubt you can have 60FPS with demanding games Laptop: Mini PC :: 11-05-2012, 11:16 PM
It seems all of you guys were right, i had cpu throttling enabled and my cpu is overheating, which is not strange at all bunch of dust in my case and all of that. I disabled cpu throttling and because the cpu clock isn't downclocking all the time because of the heat the game seems to play fine now. Cpu running hot but i can play xD hope this helps anyone in the future with similar symptons.

Just take off the CPU heatsink and reapply thermal compound on the CPU , it's not too hard you know (search "how to apply thermal compound" via youtube )

Oh I know how to do it I build my own PCs I just don't have any or any means of getting some right now ^^

(I will notice some games slowing down as I play them, but closing Dolphin and reopening it fixes that. It's not a heating issue but I don't want to jynx it/don't want to interrupt.)
