Framerates

[Shuik]

How do I make it so (that on a wii game) Instead of making the game slower at ? < 60fps it takes away frames instead? I wouldn't mind 45 fps if it meant I could have high quality, but I don't want the game to slow down...

[JosJuice]

It doesn't work that way. You could probably lower the emulated CPU clock in order to make the game go down to 45 fps or so without making the game slower, but then you would have that low framerate all the time, not just when your computer can't handle any faster.

It just says "60 FPS" except when I go to 16% and everything slows down and goes nuts.

In this video of mine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WuSJoMa18U you see (small) but frequent slowdowns which ruins the quality.
Slowdowns start at 0:07
Bigger slowdown at 0:18

First of all, what resolution are you running at? Second of all, this actually seems more like a Vsync problem than a problem of not being able to run it properly since you're just dropping frames; if you were really slowing down, the audio would also get choppy. What are your graphics settings (and Vsync settings)?

I'm pretty sure VSync is disabled. And on a bunch of other videos, the audio gets choppy.
Internal Res: 2x Native
AntiAliasing: 2x MSAA (every once in a while, SSAA)
Monitor Res: 1600 x 1200
Graphics: Nvidia Geforce GTX 550 ti
Almost default settings, but I have a crud ton of boxes checked that improve performance.

Then thats not default settings. At all. Also, often users don't understand what would be a speed up or not.

Reset Dolphin to default by deleting your config folder and only change settings in the Enhancement tab, then try again.

Actually, here are the details
Checked Boxes:
Enable Dual Core
Enable Cheats
JIT Recomplier

Backend: OpenGL (D3d is slow for me and my graphics don't support 12)
Monitor Res: 1600 x 1200
Full screen Res: 1600 x 1200
2.5x Native Res (Whenever my graphics card gets hot, I have to underclock it and put it at 2x Native)
2x MSAA Anti Aliasing

MORE CHECKED BOXES
Per pixel lighting
Disable Fog
24-bit color
Skip EFB access from CPU
Ignore Format changes
Store EFB copies to texture only
Disable External Frame Buffer
Fast Depth Calculation
Disable Bounding Box

By the way I clear my shaders cache from Dolphin every night because it's taking up a lot of space on my computer.

[Kurausukun]

Well if you clear your shader cache then you're going to stutter a lot because it'll need to generate it again every time you play, but that's not what it seemed was happening in your video. Try turning on Vsync, and if that doesn't work, force it through your video card settings along with triple buffering. Also your card sounds like it's having some trouble in general, so try keeping IR at 2x and turning off MSAA.

If I don't have AA, my screen recorder kinda freaks out and records VERY low quality.
