This is crazy. When I normally run dolphin I get between 10-15 fps because of my low-end AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.0ghz single core. I overclocked my fsb to 2.3ghz and now i'm getting between 40 and 50. Why the Hell did I get such a big speed increase
omfg overclocking 300mhz more than trippled my speed

well one, for programs that use the cpu alot an increase in cpu speed (not FSB ) will increase the emulation linearly, and two it's increased cpu frequency (not FSB, lol i said it again )

Tell more about this config, what motherboard, ram, graphic and power supply unit. I got such rig (it's my old config but I still got it somewhere in home and I can run it if I'd like to, so I can check that out): AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (overclocked to 2.4-2.5 GHz) 2GB DDR 400MHz - possible to overclocked to 433MHz on CL2.5 (if I can remember it good) Motherboard: ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe + 400W psu
i doubt you really meant youre fsb is 2,3. and there are 2 reasons why
1) amd doesn't use fsb 2) 2,3Ghz as fsb is just...insane
I think the raised its cpu to 2.3 Ghz by overclocking its FSB ^^

I will try it too, but I'm going to overclock my Q6600 2,4GHz to about 3,0GHz.^^

And Intel fsb's are clocked up to 400MHz x 4 = 1600MHz so 2.3GHz is absolutely impossible. It's obvious that he meant his cpu was overclocked to 2.3GHz. 06-15-2009, 11:20 PM
huge speedup only works for singlecore because of video running on same cpu.
for dualcore you get about that speedup, that you overclock. 25% more clock -> ~25% more speed. but dont think now that singlecore may get faster then dualcore -> this is not the case 06-16-2009, 12:54 AM

It s obvious that it is absolutely impossible , but,it is also obvious that he changed his "FSB" settings in his BIOS , even if it is Obvious that AMD uses 2 separated values (HTT(i/o from pci express and southbridge) and RAM) they are still appearing in the BIOS as FSB^^ In this case ,The FSB gives a value of frequency to the CPU (even if it doesn't exist...the FSB^^).This value multiplied by the cofficient of the HTT gives the speed of the HTT ,then the CPU applies a RAM divider at its own frequency to the RAM , so the RAM is at a correct frequency . Yes?^^
