Hello there!
So, while waiting until I can get a new, non-pitiful laptop, I'm stuck with my current one if I want to use Dolphin, and it is horribly underpowered. (no "real" GPU besides the fake integrated Intel one, U-series ultra low voltage CPU)
CPU: Intel Core i5-5005U (Dual-core @2.00GHz)
iGPU: Intel HD Graphics 5500
RAM: 6 GB DDR3L
I already know that I will never be able to reach anywhere close to full speed in most Wii, and even GC games, even at 1xIR.
I have made some tests on previous builds, and here are the results (all at 1xIR):
New Super Mario Bros. Wii: 60 ingame.
Mario Kart Wii: variable performance depsnding on tracks, hit the 50-55fps mark on some of the least polygon-heavy custom tracks (i.e. GBA remakes), falls to ~30-40 on heavier tracks, ~20 on the most intensive ones.
Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour : 58-60fps reachable, easily affected by any CPU use (opening Firefox makes it fall down to ~55fps)
Super Smash Bros. Brawl. : some small tests ingame, 60fps from what I've played (didn't try any really graphically demanding situations/stages)
So my question is, is there some dark voodoo "kill all the accuracy" magic setting I could use to reach more playable speeds in the most known games? And if not (which is very, very likely), are there any "mainstream" games besides NSMBW and obscure 2D shovelware that I can still enjoy at fullspeed?
Thank you in advance.
