Surface Pro 3

[mbc07]

My point is that Mario Kart Wii in multiplayer is not lightweight and it still runs fine in Surface Pro 3. You previously stated that only lightweight games would run in Surface Pro 3. I even dare to say that Super Mario Galaxy should be close to full speed in Surface Pro 3, especially in current development builds...

Is there some way to install cooling into a tablet like that? Maybe a slim fan, cut a hole above the CPU? Or a mini heat sink?

Except that throttling will kill the fps of any game after the heat builds up other than light weigh games.

How many rounds of mario kart you playing?

Also no real way of adding cooling to the cpu suppose you could attach. A heats ink and fan to the outer shell thing gets really hot lol.

 Surface pro 4 will not have throttling issues i suppose if it has broadwell chips.

Rumors are pentium m processors instead of I3 i5 i7 series though. I wonder how much that would impact performance up or down.

Which version did you use on the surface? In my opinion, you should try to not use older ones than 4.0-5971. Since this version, dolphin will waste much less power, so the thermal throttling may be fixed.

I always update to latest before testing on my surface. And there really is no way to stop throttling the cooling system is just to inefficient until dolphin can run at 2.2GHZ these things will throttle.

Ishiruka build helps
