Alright, the majority of the people who voted in the new benchmark thread have selected The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker as the game to test with, so here we go.
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker CPU Benchmark
Test Build
- We're going to test with the Official Dolphin 3.0 release.
- Download Windows x64.
- Download Windows x86.
- If you want to test with Mac or Linux, you'll have to use your own builds. Just use these settings and use this memory card file.
Test Area
- There is a Zelda Wind Waker NTSC memory card included with both builds above.
- If you're using a game region other than NTSC, you'll have to convert the save yourself if you want to participate.
- There are 3 saves on the memory card, this means that there are 3 separate areas to test.
- Load each memory card save on "Memory Card A" (1, 2 and 3) and do not move your character. Record your game speed, preferably in a window with the title bar displaying fps, vps and speed as I did below.
- You should also manually type out what the FPS was above your image as eventually, image hosting sites tend to remove some images.
Settings
- The settings are preset, you don't have to change anything.
Reminder
- List your PC specifications.
- Post a screenshot of your CPU speed while running this test, use a program called "Core Temp" or "Real Temp" to do this.
- Let us know which game region you're using.
- Let us know which Operating System you're using and if you're using x64 or x86.
- Don't change any settings.
