Im running dolphin 5.0 during menus my fps stays around 27-30,but during gameplay it drops below 20 fps causing gameplay to slowdown.im trying to find out what specs on my computer could possibly be causing the problem.Or if i just need a new computer all together.

Operating system:Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit(6.1,build 7601)
System model:Toshiba Satellite L455
BIOS:Version 1.00PARTTBL
Processor:Intel®Celeron® CPU 900 @ 2.20GHz,~2.2GHz
Memory:3072MB RAM

Device:Mobile Intel®45 Express Chipset Family
Chip Type:Mobile Intel®4 Series Express Chipset Family



My settings on Dolphin 5.0 are default.For my backend im using Direct3d 11.

Any advice on this matter would be helpful seeing as ive searched around for a solution but have failed.


Thanks.

It's your CPU. It's old and slow, which is where your slowdown comes from. You'll need a new motherboard and CPU, possibly new RAM, and can probably keep your hard drive. Since you don't mention a GPU, I can't say anything about that.

It's a laptop, so yeah, you now will need a new PC (a gaming PC/ laptop)

That Intel iGPU is no longer supported , it's a miracle that Dolphin can run on that laptop
If you want 99% games to run full speed on a laptop , you'll need to spend at least $800 for a gaming laptop like Dell 7559 (Quad Core i5 6300HQ + Nvidia GTX 960M)

Just so you keep this in mind, Celerons were (and are not) made for gaming.
Rig 1: Windows 10 Home | AMD A6-1450 @ 600/1000/1400 MHz | AMD Radeon HD Graphics 8250 | 4GB RAM | HP Pavilion TouchSmart 11.

Rig 2: Windows 10 Pro | Intel Core i7-2640M @ 780/2800/3500 MHz | Intel HD 3000 Mobile | 8GB RAM | Dell Latitude 6320.
