Reading here that it's actually about emulation speed, would it help if she just lowered her graphic settings? Playing in 720p instead of 1080 and without AA for example?

That is likely to help, but it depends on the hardware.

Well, her Laptop isn't as fast a my desktop pc, but at least we both have 8GB or more ram and run everything on an SSD. It really might be the m870 that isn't as beefy as my 970 and causes more slowdowns than on my end. Still, getting no desync, and the spectator netplay enables me to play without delay, so thank you for that awesome feature. It's a godsend for a transatlantic long distance relationship
