I have a laptop with the following specs.
Ivy Bridge i7 2.4GHz Turbo 3.2
8GB RAM
Nvidia 630M graphics
That's the basics anyway
So heres the problem.... I go into the NVidia control panel and I set dolphin to use the dedicated graphics chip. Under power I chose "Prefer maximum performance." When I open dolphin it shows the Graphics adapter as the Nvidia chip. Then I click play and the game loads. As soon as the window pops up for the game, I go into dolphin graphics settings again and now it shows Intel HD 4000 Graphics. It switches back to the intel graphics as soon as I load a game. Why is that?
Secondly, running dolphin I am getting 70% speed on super Mario sunshine, with HLE sound. All other settings are default except for window size which is set to "Auto - Window Size. With a 32gig ive bridge and a dedicated NVidia chip there no excuse for SMS to run that slow. SMS is not demanding. Ive run SMS on PCs with lower specs. Why is it only running 70%?
Running dolphin 4.0-1222. CPU-Z shows 3200MHz when playing SMS.
Can anyone tell me why its going so slow?
