Hey guys. I recently bought a very powerful Alienware computer, that I was fully expecting to play Wii games without any slowdown issues.
However, I am getting unacceptable slowdowns in several games. The most awful one so far has been Super Mario Galaxy. Anytime there are star bits on the screen, or multiple large enemies, the frame rate drops to around 40fps and the game stutters like crazy. I've tried every backend with pretty much every setting available. I've messed with it for hours to no avail. Even at 1x internal resolution the problem persists. I have noticed that if I enable "Skip EFB access.." that the game plays smoother, but that disables key features of the game.
I've also noticed slowdowns in Metroid Prime Trilogy (as bad if not worse than SMG), Kirby's Epic Yarn, and Xenoblade. I haven't had a chance to test a whole lot of games because these issues have made me frustrated to the point of almost giving up.
And yet I can play Crysis 3 at max settings without issue..
My specs: Windows 8.1 64bit, Intel i7-4820 processor, Dual Nvidia GTX-770's in SLI (tried disabling SLI..no help), 16 gigs of ram.
What can possibly be wrong?
