Should this system be able to run Zelda WW?

Hi all. I've been cruising around the forum and from what I can see, I thought I'd have no problem emulating wind waker at near 100% speed, but I only seem to average about 60%. Are my specs not up to par or am I just doing something wrong. I've tried both Graphics plugins (although I get many glitches with DX9) and 4 different revisions, all between 3972 and 4447 (compiled by Orleans).

Specs:

AMD X2 6000+ @ 3Ghz
4Gb DDR2 800 RAM
ATI 4870 1GB
Creative X-fi Xtreme Gamer

Thanks a billion!

Is dualcore-mode activated ? I nearly got the same CPU and it runs WW at 100%.
Your graphicscard should be strong enough for GC-games.

a AMD X2 6000+ is no ways close to a Phenom X4 9950

Mine has 4x2,6ghz cores, the "AMD X2 6000" which i had before my quadcore has 2x2,6ghz cores.
There is also not much difference for a dualcore-application running on it Tongue

Anyways the cpu is strong enough for WW.

but your cpu is clock for clock faster than the 6000+

Darn.. I wonder what's wrong. I did enable dual core in Dolphin btw. Any more ideas?

Well, do you have the drivers for your GFX Card installed?
also try the revisions from Omegadox, I dont know why but they're usually faster, maybe because he has less add ons than Orlean's...

Your system should run WW easily, see thread above for testing i did. Hmm try a build from here
