Q: for dolphin pro, whats with the performence?

[stormingthegates]

Okay so this is a question everyone always has the same answer to; " dood u gotta upgrade yer cpu." and yes i understand this but understand my question please. i just would like to know whats with gamecube performence in general, because im below ameteur in this field. I play fallout 3 perfectly on my computer at its highest settings, so the only figure i had for dolphin was why wouldnt it work well. Windwaker wont go above 40-45% speed (except in buildings) does this have to do with the fact that a gc game is being converted to play on pc? because i would have thought fallout 3 or tomb raider is much more demanding than windwakers cartooney awesomeness. itd just be nice to have an explanation i understand :) thank you for anyones time

That's a lie. There is no way that hardware can max out Fallout 3 at full speed.

The easiest explanation is that it takes much more processing power to run an emulated game than a game designed to play on your hardware. So, get a new PC, that one won't get you very far. Basically, we've had too many people with that kind of hardware making threads like these and we don't need anymore.
