Those percentages make perfect sense since your computer has 4 threads and dolphin only uses 2 + some background stuff
Should I be expecting bad performance?

Hello again, I solved some of my problems. Something is wrong with my chrome, when i open a chrome window a wrtc.exe process opens and hogs all my computers power. In fact it'll run my cpu at 95% when idle and will open about 20 processes. So it appears that when I've been running dolphin with a chrome window open it has explained the slowness. I still get drops down to about 85% constantly and certain areas of Sonic 4 Ep I though, but I think that is to be expected.
I also tried to play twilight princess (GC), but the map is all glitched out. Switched EFB to ram but it slowed down the game to 60%. Any way around this, or should I ask in a different section of the forum? Also if anyone has any advice about the 20 wrtc.exe processes that open with chrome (found in windows/syswow64/ARFC/...) that would be great! 06-08-2013, 04:14 PM
your cpu might be too slow with current revisions for TP . especially after EFB to Ram
btw what graphical setting did you use

I forgot I was still on 4x native, knocked it down to 2x and that seemed to help it stay over 95%.

Because they don't. In fact all 4 cores jump around at about 60%. 07-13-2013, 12:57 PM
That's normal with Dolphin, on any OS (so you can't blame Windows, which has a few minor quirks regarding multithreading). I don't know why it does that, though.

Your i5 is a Dual Core CPU with HyperThreading (2 cores 4 threads) , not a quad core CPU ( 4 cores 4 threads)
A quad core CPU with HyperThreading is i7 : 4 cores 8 threads You're confused between Thread and Core . 50-60% is normal for your CPU Laptop: Mini PC :: 07-13-2013, 02:01 PM
Oh, so I wonder what's going on with my monitor widget saying I have 4 cores... :/
