iMac I5 2,7ghz Super Mario Galaxy

[Scirocco]

Does anybody knows why Super mario galaxy goes slow on my iMac i5 2,7 ghz, 12 GB ram?

Any help would be much appreciate.

Depends on the GPU

i5 ? which i5 ? GPU ? which AMD GPU ?
12Gb ram won't make any different if either your CPU or GPU bottleneck

Requirement for SMG (LLE backend) : i5 2500k @ 4.4Ghz
(HLE backend) : i5 650 @ 3.5Ghz or i3 2100 @ 3.1Ghz

My videocart is an: AMD Radeon HD 6770M 512MB.
Is this not enough to play Super Mario Galaxy on normal speed?

Hello,

My intel core i5 is the lastest, with 2,7 ghz
My videocart is an AMD Radeon HD 6770M 512MB.
Is this not enough to play Super Mario Galaxy on normal speed?

Or do you need more information?

latest i5 ? I don't know , at least list that i5 model . Ex : i5 2390T @ 2.7Ghz , i5 2500S @ 2.7Ghz
Anyway , those CPU won't cut it if you're using LLE backend
You should check CPU clock speed when running dolphin . Without turbo boost , those i5 ain't powerful enough for HLE backend

Thanks for your reply.
How can i turbo boost my iMac, and run Super Mario Galaxy smoothly?

Turbo Boost activates itself when your CPU needs more power.

But we don't know, which i5 you've got...

Running dolphin through windows on bootcamp might help but your cpu is a bit slow for certain parts of SMG.

I have bought on 1 feb 2012 an iMac 27 inch i5 2,7 ghz, and infortunately this is without turbo boost
