Hey all, running the emu on a core i5 laptop. When ever i run a game my cpu stats show 16 cores. Is this normal for the rest of you? Not sure if i should file this as an issue or not.

Im getting a i7 extreme edition m15x ; I was wondering how was the performance on Super Mario Galaxy and LOZ: TP... And if you over clock or not ?
OR u can use something like this and assign cores via batch file :-)
edit to your needs. Code: @echo off
My Rig:
Mainboard: Asus P8-Z77 | Ram: ExceleRam 2x8GB DDR3 Black Shark 1600MHz Cl9 | GFX: Nvidia GTX950 WFOC 2GB DDR5 CPU+Cooler: [color=#0000CD]Intel 2500K[/color] [color=#32CD32]@[/color] [color=#FF0000]4.6ghz[/color] + Xigmatek Gaia SD1283 (Push/Pull)
Weirdly I have never had this problem on my i7, turning off HT does not impact my performance in anyway. I have never seen activity on my HT'ed cores when running dolphin, except for the time I was running LLE + LLE on a separate thread. I know HT is working because when I am converting video all my cores are used.

Not sure if i should file this as an issue or not. the bios on my lappy does not have the option to disable HT so i just use core affinity. performance is solid. average about 85-90% speed off the top of my head in SMG1 with the latest revisions. turbo mode does kick cpu to 2.5ghz gpu is 360m equal to a desktop 8800gt |
