You guys want specs? Oh, I'll give you specs.
Windows 7 Home Prenium 64-bit (6.1 Build 7600)
Language: English
Made by Dell
Model: Dell Inspiron 570, all [Included in Price]
Processor: AMD Sempron™ 140
1 MB Cache, ~2.7 GHz. Not overclocked or enabled cores for safety reasons.
RAM 2048 MB
Video Card and Sound Card:
ATI Radeon HD 4200 Integrated Chipset
Realtek High Definition (Also integrated.)
Dolphin Builds Tested: x64 7063, x64 7083
Configuration: Slightly faster with EVERYTHING turned off.
Running in Windowed Mode: 640x480
I know the deal has to do with my processor? Why? I checked a PC Component Usage Meter and these were my results.
My RAM went up 20% in usage once emulation of a gamecube game started.
My processor? 100%. This thing made y processor fun at its best and this is what happened:
In non-playing scenes.
Super Mario Sunshine:
Skips yet has full speed 30 FPS 60 VPS
Title screen goes down to 1% Speed
Wind Waker:
Always Full Speed except for title screen where it skips
Playing scenes:
Always cuts down to 50% 15 FPS 30 VPS
That enough info? Good. Here's what I want to know.
Am I doing something wrong that is making these games run horribly?
Should I attempt to overclock or 'second core' my only processor?
If so, should I buy a backup Sempron 140?
Can you please help me? I have one rule though. If you came here just to say that it works fine on your computer, if you can't give me the Dolphin build, your RAM, and processor speed and core number, I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT.
